Very cool. I love the fully suited guy in the S2k giving the point!

[Wh33lhop]

Actually yes. Only the 3 mile course though, no thunderschleife yet. So finally I'm doing a track day in familiar territory. :)

Great stuff N. I got to an HPDE at Sears about 15 years ago and would love to go back now that I have a little more experience under my belt.

Is Thunderhill next?

[Wh33lhop]

Does it really matter? ;)

Car looks like total ass. I love it.

[tinkerputzer]

Lol that's freekin awesome! I can't tell is the guy in the s2000 pointing you by or flipping you off :)

[Wh33lhop]

Here's what it actually looked like out there, lol.





teehee







Surprisingly some more body roll than I expected (yeah I missed the apex, fuck you that was the first session and the fastest corner)

[Cabriolet]

Yeah better than Laguna IMO. I really liked Laguna too.

I hear this alot. more turns and you dont feel like you need 900hp to get up the hill.

[Wh33lhop]

Yeah better than Laguna IMO. I really liked Laguna too.

This was the fast intermediate group. Point by recommended but not required. I always waited for a point by as I just don't trust people to see me and I have no power to pass on straights. Most of the point bys you just can't see since my passenger's head is in the way.

ugh so Jealous. better than Laguna???!?! interesting. Either way, I want to drive both tracks next year, just need to get some seat time under my belt. What group were you in? It looked like you were free to pass whenever a slow car was in your way

[Wh33lhop]

Damn that looks fun! Nice driving, could tell you were in the zone. Same spring rates and sway bars? How are the pfc 11's working out?

Thanks buddy, I'm always in the zone in this car :) yeah ASTs 600/780 and 22/19 sways, 3.5 camber and a little toe out. I do like the pads but wasn't confident in the brakes for unrelated reasons, so I was braking early. I think I have a weird booster issue or something, plus the pedal got a little spongy as the day went on. Again, nothing to do with the pads though.

I think of this as a shakedown run. The first time on track doing its thing and it was crazy fun. Can't wait to go back.

noiceeeeeeeeeee!

Yeah you were right man. Best track in the Bay Area, definitely better than Laguna. I need to go back in the next few months for sure.

[kronus]

anyway i wish i could've been out there! i miss that track.

[Wh33lhop]

Haha. Nah no understeer. Seemed like the fastest line to me.
