Man, what a good time that was!

I'm still cutting up and editing videos but here's my last session of the day on the road course if anyone is interested.





You'll see a black Challenger on the track at one point, that is the MAV TV Crew Camera Chase car...I'm certain they got some great video action over the day of us two Monte Carlos racing together as we came upon them several times. You'll also see Dan kick a cone directly into my line in the chicane and I chose to take out 2 other cones at full speed instead of trying to dodge all of them at that speed. This caused a short black flag to allow them to reset the Chicane then a quick restart. At that point I was only braking in two spots on the track (thanks to Chris, my fantastic instructor) turn 2 after coming off the front straight and turn 7 before turning back onto the back straight. The rest of the lap I was only scrubbing off speed by turning or lifting the throttle. I could run down a lot of higher powered, better cars by doing this and it was a LOT of fun.

Car felt great all day, zero issues, a lot of fun was had by all.

I'll post up more videos once I get them edited and uploaded. Working on the Speed stop one now.
