M3 Number 86 · 06-23-2016, 08:32 PM

Guess it's this one right? Looks better from this angle.

M3 Number 86 · 06-23-2016, 08:33 PM

Just an awesome pic of CalSE awesome car.

roastbeef · 06-23-2016, 08:33 PM

No. Look closely. Same as the gt4, just the actual wing is a little bit longer.

Buttonwillow bloopers from Friday 24 June. Was trying way too hard; also should have just given up on that lap after exiting too far left after Club Corners into Bus Stop. Immediately went off afterwards too on Phil Hill .. on the same lap - was taking it easy because was just gonna immediately pit, but taking it easy was still too fast not to brake on Phil Hill. Wow.

AriuSen did a ridealong with me and was giving me some tips on what to do better, and I rewarded him with a dirt shower

((

It did help though later that day, got a faster lap time even though it was a million degrees outside, so new PB with DSC off!

A good friend of mine was instructing at willow springs and a student wasn't listening about needing to be tidy at the apex of one and not early it. Student didn't listen and went off at exit, much like the video above. However, my buddy knew he was going to go off so he hit the window switch and put the window up before the dirt shower hit him. That's skill.

Great video. You're definitely helping yourself progress with all the data (video included) from each track day you do.

I haven't watched enough of your videos to provide thorough analysis, but from this video your reaction time and hands both are just far too slow. You don't seem to notice the slide happening for much too long, and then when you do realize you let go of the wheel (which can work sometimes if you have the space ) instead of counter steering by hand.

Great stuff overall though; you look like you're having a blast out there and learning a lot while doing it. Keep it up!

EDIT: I typed "s p a c e," and for some reason it was asterisk'd out.

Yeah I definitely screwed up badly in this video. I knew the slide was coming way in advance - just didn't think it would be so severe; figured I could slide out to the edge and put power on - when I realized I wasn't gonna make it I tried to fix it - and it didn't work lol.

Always a work in progress.
