Buttonwillow 07.28.2012

Due to having to cancel an early June event, hadn't run Buttonwillow since April and finally ran it this past weekend. 'tiz been way too long, I'm sure those who are familiar with Buttonwillow would agree.

Here's a video of a decent run from a not-all-that-stellar day at the track.

Holy Shit! That was an intense video. Loved the off and then back on and then around the 2:04 mark driving through that dust cloud... It was more like you were being chased than at the track. Btw, love the arm on the door carousel technique, it's becoming your signature move

Randall, you should post the "3 minute" video!

Here's my own vid from the weekend. A decent lap followed by a ragged half a lap with a near-spin at the end.

Looking good...quite intense though. I had a friend in an S2000, I asked him to search you out. Different run group though (beginner).

Video looks good!

Re: 3 min video, some take things too seriously (as you can tell from that posted comment) and I think there might be more here, lulz.

Next time, let me know ahead - I'll go find'em and invite him to hang out w/ us.

When are you coming back down to Button?
