I've seen some great timing before, but that may take the cake!

There was a turtle after the esses at Lime Rock last time I was there. It wasn't as fast as the squirrel in the OP, which allowed me to spot and go around it. I was wondering if I'd see it torn apart on the next lap, and fortunately, it had made it across and was out of sight.

Are you sure it wasn't a Miata or an Audi TT?

[I know, I know. Miata's are fast etc, etc. Bear with me for comic effect]

Amazing with how low the Lambo sits. Did it cut off part of its tail? It looks shorter in the end of the video

It did. If you look really closely at the left side of the screen near the road at around 0:03-0:04, you can see the tail flipping around a bit until it flies off screen.

Hey, that looks like California Speedway...This is probably shot at one of those private Lamborghini days that PPD put together once a year.

I don't ever recall there being "wild life" at California Speedway though, although a walk through the infield grass you can see plenty of holes dug up by some sort of burrowing animal.

Ha ha, yeah I saw the fur ball too! This is definitely AAA Speedway. I wonder if that Lambo made it all the way through the day without needing a service.
