Laguna Seca Video - 2.25.10
Here are segments from four run groups from this past Thursday where we (several CF members) snuck in between two storm fronts and had perfect weather.

Thanks for sharing the videos. On some of your laps, you hear a "bang" at the apex of Turn 6. Do you know what that is? I happen to see a video of a S2000 running Laguna Seca, and he had an even louder bang at the apex of Turn 6. Just curious what might be going on at that turn.

"There is a depression at the apex in T6, which is a very high speed kink . . . our cars fully compress and can bottom out at speed!"
Turn 6 is very deceptive, the possible speed is much higher than it appears. Taken correctly, there is just a "dab" on the brakes, then drop the driver's side front tire off the rumble strip at the apex. This produces an almost violent "lurch" around the apex of this turn, quite unlike anyother turn that I have ever experienced.
