Looked real squirrelly with those worn TD's! Nice video, great driving, and digging the BFD...cause race car!

Did the yellow boxster have 5 day old TDs? Haha I never seen a boxster be that loose before.

Did you have 3 sets of tires? On same day? You must have brought your pit crew.

The miata must have been at top speed through the bus stop. He gained like 15 car lenghts on you through that section. Impressive

Nope, I drove there on new NT01 & hauled TD's. Those TD's on their 2nd day gave me 1:59 at BRP and, on 3rd day, 2:01 at CVR, so I thought perhaps this particular set might be decent on their 4th day. Wishful thinking!

I did, for a while, have a neighborhood kid helping me out as a pit crew, but he recently found himself a girlfriend, one that isn't into cars, so he's gone AWOL now. lulz

I was on a cool-down lap in that footage. But yea, still very quick thru corners. Makes me want to test drive one.

That's pretty cool! I guess BFD is a BFD

See, told ya it was working

Nice stuff Randall.

Do you know Joey who was driving the white GT3 with the cup wing? He is friends with the driver in the yellow Boxster, and he loves to drift and slide his car through the corners.

It *is* cool! Yea, you told me, but to see it on a video, one that's right behind close to my car and with such clarity (undoubtedly Hero 3), it's awesome!

I'll follow your car close and video-capture it.

Yea I know Joey, and yes, he is friends with Yuren, the yellow Boxter driver.

Anyhow, thanks again for the upclose video of BFD!

Didn't realize you were having so much fun that day. Nice driving!

USCTrojanMan29 · 04-27-2014, 09:57 PM

The most important question is...how were you able to sneak away to the track on Easter?
