Default Oktoberfest DE

Since there are 500 fall drive threads, and I am getting jealous that I missed out this year... I figured I'd start a thread to gloat about the awesome track weekend we had at Mosport (yaya.. ctmp.. whatever)!

If anyone else who was there has some footage, please add it to the thread! For now, here's some yellow group action from Rolstin and I!

Nice driving Jonathans!

I'm surprised both of you are not signed off yet.

I have some video of the 2nd day I could throw up but it was my first time at the track with my car and I was getting passed left and right in the green group so it might not be too interesting to watch

Absolutely! I put up vids from my first times and I got blown by... Still do (man there was a turbo passed me on the back straight as if I was parked!) Lots of people here have years of track experience and can probably provide tips for improving and positive feedback! That's what DE is all about.

Here's a few laps from the last session on Sunday. A lot of people got bumped up to white after Saturday so there was a lot less traffic for Green/Yellow. I know I can enter the corners faster but working on smoothness before speed, tips would be appreciated. =)

Jonathans looks great!
Scorcher just watched the first lap and the line is really good, as you become more comfortable you can get on the gas earlier (closer to after apex) and brake later but looking good, just keep it up.
