Default Daytona International onboard Porsche 997 Cup with myself

Few laps on board, really great circuit, banking is really cool! First few laps on it is a very weird experience, as the G force is completely different to normal. Clocking over 180mph on the banking!

Look forward to doing the 24 Hours in a few weeks and hopefully see lots of you there! I am in the number 26 Momo NGT Motorsport car. Off to Dubai for the 24 hour there now though.

Enjoy

great video... you are very quick. Racing on the same track with those Prototypes must be something else

Awesome. That was cutting it awfully close to that car spun at the exit of the busstop wasn't it? Good thing he was on the brakes and didn't roll down the banking into you.

Sean,

Awesome driving, looks like you have been racing there for years. Nice lesson for me as I was not able to attend the practice session last weekend.

Good luck!

A tremendous contrast to the constant turning in your Ring video. Great stuff!

It's really cool that a driver of your caliber would share that with us here. Thanks!

I know who I'll be rooting for in the 24.

Sean, that longer video that you made of the 12 Hours was really cool, too!

Thanks again for sharing!

Nice job Sean! I'm going to try and sneak a grappling hook to your car for the race to keep up. :P

Mike, someone in your car got a nice lap time, was that you? I could not make the practice sessions due to a big party I had for myself on Saturday.
