Here's an interesting fact, I got 6.6mpg during 3 sessions on the track. Yikes.

Ok, I finally got all my video footage uploaded to the internet from the BMW CCA HPDE on Thunderbolt Track at NJ Motorsports Park. There's over an hour and a half of footage. Here are the links to the 7 sessions that I recorded. The first ones in the red (beginner) group, I was put there by mistake. A few in the blue (intermediate) group. And the last two in the green (advanced) group. The car is a 2008 M3 with DCT.

Here are the links in chronlogical order: You might want to grab a Snickers Bar. (Great googly moogly)

It's entirely possible, however some corners reward an early apex. Also, the cones are not set up perfectly as this was the first time the BMW CCA has been at the track and the cone placement wasn't refined over the weekend. I figure, as long as I can accelerate out of the apex and not go off the track at the track out point, my turn in wasn't too early
