E30 playing with a 944 turbo

[Charlie]

Fun weekend with the Northern Ohio chapter over Memorial day.

Here's a quickie clip from the last session of the day, A run group. The Porsche in question is a 944 turbo, fully gutted race car on Hoosiers, driven by an instructor with 15+ years race experience. I'm in a mostly stock e30 on J stocks, stock 153k m20, used up HP+ brakes, and old take off 14 inch RA1s with 7 additional days on them from whenever I bought them, so safe to say they're cycled out.

Anyways, a good couple of laps of red mist and overdriving, not the prettiest, but fun as hell to watch.

noob quesiton: what do u mean by red mist?

Red mist: "The condition where ego or testosterone poisoning overcomes one's knowledge of one's mortality. Generally entered when a driver is passed, or sees a faster car ahead to try and catch. Results in missed flags, embarassment, and an oops at worst."

It's bad. But, he did good!


Nice job, Charlie. Looks like ti was fun out there! :D
