Default A Few Laps at PIR

I haven't posted any of my track videos before so I thought I'd learn and try posting one. I'm new to PIR so I'm running HPDE 3 a few times before I jump into the Arizona Corvette Racers time trials. This was a dual BMWCCA/NASA event...a well attended, well run event with lots of nice, fast cars. Afternoon temps were in the 70s.

I had problems off-loading the previous day’s video to my laptop so I lost the test & tune sessions running with the faster cars. Here are some laps in HPDE 3 having fun chasing a modded C5 Z. The video is edited for time constraints and the quality sadly degrades with compression for the Interweb. I had the microphone muffled to cut wind noise. My thanks to all the Arizona Corvette Racers who made me feel right at home...it was a fun weekend!

wow that is very similar to Gateway International speedway. By the way do you have a harness that you attached the camera to?

Woo-Hoo!!! Looks like good times were had!

Thanks Wayne - great video.

Your car looks STRONG and sounds AWESOME!!

It looks like they run the "wrong way" there, just like here at Daytona and in muskaroxs' video of PDX. I guess all these NASCAR venues with an infield road course all run the NASCAR way - counterclockwise.
