In Car Video NJMP Lightning 8/24/08

This is the final session on Sunday. Not real exciting to watch, kinda looks like I'm doing 10mph. You'll get the idea and see the track and its elevation changes. Top speed for me on the front stretch as you pass the start/finish is 120+, then its up the hill and around a blind corner down the hill and off ya go.

The second video has a little more excitement in it. Some one goes off course kicks up all kinds of dust and you go blind for minute as you pass through it. Then a car spins at the end of the front straight going up over and around the first turn. Luckily the guy in front of me checks up and I slow down. No harm, no foul just a bruised ego.

You'll notice I am not doing alot of shifting once in 4th gear, just trying to keep it simple have fun and make it home. I do grab fifth on the front straight as 4th maxes out at 6000rpm. The hard left hander after going under the bridge I grab third to help get out of the turn and up the hill. I need to learn and get good at heel/toe shifting.
