Well, Mark does have "some" track experience.. lol


When we took the Spring Mountain driving class and did the ride along with the instructors they were hauling ass around the track and using one hand to talk on the walkie talkies! lol

Makes you feel like a pretty crappy driver when they drive better with on hand than you do with two.

I noticed two things that looked odd to me. At 4:07 in the first clip is that a guy standing just on the other side of the cones on the right? Also, it looks like a car sitting just off the track outside what I would guess is turn one (4:20 or so in the same clip). Seems odd that there would be people allowed on a hot track not behind barriers...

Did Mark think it slowed him down? I'm not saying I'm as fast as Stielow but I ran out there with a 3 point and didn't slide around enough to hinder my driving. I did have both hands on the wheel. Car looks to be damn fun to drive.:thumbsup:
