Re: EXPO Video
Jesus Christ that's an asinine amount of power, I'm not sure if you're doing yourself any favors in the learning process department but it sure does look like a hoot. Stoked that you made it there and back on it's own power.totsie7944 wrote:2 Video's from Expo and 1 of VIR last weekend. Enjoy.

Tell me that vette is boosted. It seemed to be walking you in the straights at the beginning of the vid.

Re: EXPO Video
Haha no it was pretty stock I believe. He was downshifting to 2nd gear on the back straight and I was staying in 4th gear. It was 120 degrees on track so I didn't need to be downshifting just to blow another car for video purposes. I had a bunch of lag in 4th because I was at like 2,000 rpms when I hit it...listen to the video and you'll hear the car doesn't rev up until a bit down the straight.CivicBeater wrote:Tell me that vette is boosted.

The first scene of the whole vid you can see I'm flying up behind him when I was going all out.

Re: EXPO Video

Re: EXPO Video
I was talking about Autobahn
I thought VIR was easier to learn than ACC...maybe because I was REAL slow back then. DB7 powah

Re: EXPO Video
Yeah, I would've politely declined getting in your car. 600+whp, <3,000lbs, only a few hours of track time under your belt. Helllllll no. These instructors must not care for their lives.totsie7944 wrote:He was freaking out. He started screaming to brake like 2 markers before I really should have haha

Re: EXPO Video
I really hope you listened to your instructor. No offense, but a student that thinks they know more in a stupid fast car like your's is the reason I do not want to instruct anymore.totsie7944 wrote:He was freaking out. He started screaming to brake like 2 markers before I really should have haha

Re: EXPO Video
basing your line off the cars in front of you is a sure fire way to do everything completely wrong. You're mostly just missing apexes and not using enough of the track. More relying on your horsepower rather than using it.totsie7944 wrote:all the cars in front of me had bad lines
