No pics, but if all my stuff is working right I should have a good video of a BMW go off in giant dust cloud.

Only did one session. HUGE material transfer with new rotors and tires.
The car shakes itself in ABS, hopefully that will go away today.

Other than that the car seems ok, less direct with the C2 steering rack but it does steer lighter.

Still scrubbing in new NT-01's and I have no ideae where the track goes yet in the big beige sandbox.

People are really friendly and courteous on this coast, takes a little getting used to.

Also awesome weather 75, little clouds, dry breeze beer cooler is waiting for me and they just lit the BBQ.

Catering is way better in CA
Best track, trailer-side lunch I ever had.

It needed a nice red wine but they frown on that here.

Trakcar - who was the idiot who went off every session in BMW? Heh

Interestingly, trakcar has all my off roading and silly dances. Only happens when he is behind me.
