Good job holding the line, I would have been honking at the guy in the white SC, he may have had you in power but he couldnt drive in the curves like you were. Great videos.

Nice video sure brings back memories, can't believe you followed the "sc" that close as he/she forced the line. But patience worked as you got him out of 10.

Not too many in your group used the whole track -(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

Great vid, Trekkor. I'm glad you didn't show a clip of you passing me. I still can't believe how tight your car was taking those turns! That's one fast, flat 914 you got there. See you out on the track again.

Thanks for the compliments!
This is "Novice" group with TrackMasters.
TMR

I was really fun and a very safe group.
No one had any trouble all day.

I'll be in "low-intermediate" at Laguna next.

( did you catch the wheel hop on vid #1 as I went through turn #3 when I hit the burm? )

Trekkor,
have you driven Laguna before?
Be careful...
We have to get to the same event one of these days.
Are you planning on running the GGR TT series next year?
If so we will definitely get together for some fun. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif)

Turn 6 is deceptively technical.
So is turn 4
Everyone worries about turn 2, 8, 10 and 11 but I have seen more carnage at turn 4 and 6 than anywhere else on the track....that is about 15+ years of driving and working tow truck duties there.

If you have the chance...depending on what group you are running with, try to get an instructor for, at least, your first session.

Definitely will see you next season with GGR.
I may go to the first ground school just to give Gary and John Seidel a hard time.

Trekkor:

Thanks for the footage of doing the laps at Sears Point.

In your driving school sessions, I was surprised to see you overtake so many cars including a 'Vette.

-Is your car fully race-prepped?
-What engine are you running
-Got Slicks or DOT perf tires.
-Are you running full race suspension mods, ie coilovers?

I am told the track is a bit scary since there is so little run off and lots of Armco.
How did it look to you?
