It's a ChaseCam DIVA video (not HD) but I like it because it shows what's going on behind me (and makes it easy to see who might be beside me). The GoPro is nicer video but lacks the rear view.
For fun, Red Sprint Race #2 from the putt-putt perspective. The Red GT3S beat me in the first race, I was not going to let him do it again. And some cup cars have lots of power, but are not so fast through the turns...
I'm a long way from a pro driver but I continue to learn to drive better. Last year was my first time at RA and my best time was a 2:28. This time I managed a 2:25 (in this race a 2:26 was best).

Watching it I noticed that your rear wing flexes a lot, not sure that's a good thing. You could be losing down force in the carousel and kink etc..

The rear wing is a work in progress. The amount of movement has been noted and will be addressed.
I don't think it's having a big effect on downforce as I seem to be able to the kink as fast or faster than many cup cars (I know I can do it at 112 without issue, it's just guessing what the cup in front of me is going to do). You'll note I catch a lot of people in the carousel and get closer before the kink.

And you are much better than most under braking!

Rented a house in town so we wouldn't have to take cars back to track after the party on Saturday night. They were a little loud at 7am on Sunday morning though...

Enjoyed my first PCA race with Autometrics Motorsports. New 175 "Killer Bee " performed well in the hands of Cory Friedman. Now I just have to get up to speed!
