Default Bye bye GT3 RSs, chased around a 1972 Porsche RSR

pardon the sailor talk. bad habit on the track!


I am so tired but had to post this...

At big willow today chasing a track prepped 1972 RSR that was fully track prepped and an instructors. I think he was toying with me, but it was BRILLIANT to watch and experience. I can't wait to get back the pro pix.

The RSR





Car craft was on hand and the track photogs themselves put cameras in my Camaro for my 3rd session. I can't wait to see their in car footage.

Put down some times I'm happy with, didn't put one wheel off, and didn't feel ANY pain during my sessions. I found a cure, Adrenaline. In 2 different sessions instructors came out to play with me with their own cars, a 1972 Porsche RSR, and later a Z06 vette from arizona.


Was a fun sight to see to say the least, and I learned a lot just following the instructors lines. I can't wait to get the professional photos. Guy also took promotional footage of my last session with 2 cameras one pointed at me and the other on my back window. Can't wait to see that. Met so many good people today and had such a great time.

Best time of the day was, using Trackmaster on android:








app is cool. Not sure GPS speedo is accurate. It was way off on the drive up. But the checkpoint system with split markers is brilliant. $5 app that does $800 worth expensive logging gears work.

Inspired by Jim Taylor and his falcon I decided to drive out to big willow. No more trailering.

More RSR


Fun toy.


Absolutely stunning...







With instructor in chase in the vette. We battled for about 3 laps before I gave the point by. Good fun and I had cameras all in the car during the session.
