Nice Mike.

P.S. - Thanks for the new desktop background.

vegas_speedster 03-28-2006 06:58 AM

pretty cool. are there more?

Yowsa! I didn't realize how varied in elevation the track really is.... that 2nd pic makes it look like you could lose control real quick over that drop.

the famous corkscrew! i would love to drive that track. my stepdad ran it years ago in a KR500 mustang, said it was a blast.

I like how the Porsche and BMW are behind you :040:

SinCity350Z 03-28-2006 08:07 AM

The track is a lot of fun. On the day I went, it was on and off raining so it wasn't as good as it could have been, but I will be back one day with good weather hopefully.

Sam - There are 20 something, but a lot of them are from the same spots. I picked one or two of my favorites from each spot to post.

It is really fun. To tell you the truth though, I would still rather be at Buttonwillow or the 3.1 mile SMMR.

Bet it was a little scary at first, huh?

Yeah, but the only reason it was scary was because my first session out was in the rain, and thats when I realized that Michelin Pilot Sport Cups are next to useless in the wet :) .

^^^ Oh yeah... slip 'n slide at Laguna!

yep, it puckered my butt hole a few times with all of those walls right there.

ensmuns 03-28-2006 12:20 PM

Man, if I was on the sidelines watching you going near those walls, I'd be sweatin' too.

Actually I didn't. The limit that day was 92db and I was 92.6db and got black flagged. They just told me to lift off the throttle as I went by the microphone.

That's hilarious.

turbo_jimbo 03-28-2006 11:17 PM

oh isnt that cute! you and the rx7s have to lift early so the exhaust/ bov noises dont get you black flagged! kinda sucks with it being an uphill towards the corkscrew too.

I would say that at least 60% of the car that day were too loud. And the sound booth is before you go up the hill, between 5 and 6.

Super sweet pics Mike (saving as background) Whats the reason for sound limits? Kinda stupid at a track???

Yeah it is stupid, but there is a campground right next to it. I am sure thats why.
