Default 2014 OUSCI Road Course

Here's a video from the final road course session (about 1/3 into it).

It gets really wild about two minutes in .

Some really sweet driving by all and a great perspective on how hard these guys track their cars.

LOL... I know what you mean. I was watching this last night on the big screen and found myself leaning into each turn!

Dog Fights!







This photo was taken at about 5:20 on the video, quick heavy application of mid-range throttle.

Thanks for posting. Really nice driving by Mark in an obviously very well prepared car.

Very cool video. Thanks for posting.

The track looks tighter than I expected when I think of LVMS. Seems like it might be less of a "horsepower track" than Spring Mountain?

Interesting to hear how much those Rival street tires squeal under braking and through the turns. Hoosiers don't make that kind of noise unless you're spinning out. Not that I would know

What motor does Maier have in that Mustang of his to be able to almost keep up with you on the straightaways? Seems like a bit more than a 289 with a tune up
