Thanks for posting, Jerry, MIGHTY MOUSE vs the evil 3.8!!! Great speed in the esses!

Love the camera angle, maybe you could put a mic in the car though so we could hear what's going on?

Crappy iPhone pics, but they do capture the mood Thursday evening when a friend and I registered at the track.

I've got some iPhone video from the T3 bridge I will put up as well.

Nice video Jerry. Great driving! That red 993 twin had some serious pull.

22 pages of arguing about the event and less than a page of videos. What's up with that? Are you guys worried about Alonso and Vettel pinching your speeed secrets?

Arguing is what we DO on Rennlist. Didn't you get the memo?

Great line, Jerry- Mark's red turbo certainly has some speed. You move that C3 car very well. Nice speaking with you.
I must say that the music was kinda unnerving, however...
Like you, we were in great battles throughout both races. Coexistence in the corners, as it should be.
Still looking forward to that beer at The Glen, VR~

No secrets here but you can learn how NOT to drive COTA, as my car and driving were terrible due to missing most sessions with an ignition problem. I wish I got as much track time as the DE entrants.

Fun race starts and a little more, with a happy ending.

Is this safe for work?

Sorry I never got over to meet you Mike. I was just two doors down. I stuck my head in your garage a couple of times but never was able to find you.

I imagined for a moment that I was actually in a Formula 1 event, and sure enough, here comes an errant wheel...




This one is for jacksonrw...

So it was your fault!

Man, that trip through the esses was just painful. It may not be faster than when a group of us went through them in the rain Friday during our first green lap. I must have gotten really lucky, as I can't say I got caught at parade lap speeds the whole weekend. Obviously some drivers were having a real hard time learning the track. This was the last run on Sunday before the next yellow DE session brought the curtain down.

"Interesting" pass coming out of T15.
