Cool video Mitch. Who's driving the red Camaro? He punted the red Firebird early in the video and I'm guessing that he hit you about the 2:20 mark.

This is my favorite Sebring pic. Lots of high dollar cars behind me.

Look a little further down the track.

The red Firebird had to checkup because of a black car in front of him ... I was lucky that day.

Both the driver of the red Firebird and Red Z are on FRRAX

Streets of Willows:



Big track of Willows Springs:








guy in the ZO6 was slow and held me up. he'd walk away from me on the front/back straight, but as soon as we came to turn 1 he was down to about 55ish and i was going through about 70. thats pretty much how all the track was, i was getting pissed

Here I am at the buttonwillow driving clinic. Very long and fast track. Easy to pass everything on the track with 400+rwh, except for the occasional c6 z06 with a good driver.

Ooops, I didn't see that and yes you were lucky that day. My apologies to the Camaro driver.

roy wins.

slightly related note.....does anyone notice getting rock chips/whatnot on the nose of the car when on a road course? i dont care if your car is just a race car and you dont care about appearance......this is for the guys who drive their baby on a course. i have a bra i use for autox (helps alot with cones). i plan on hitting a track sometime this year, and if i dont have to put the bra on, i wont. would the track, on average, be cleaner then the street?

Those are called character marks ... drive it like you stole it.

You can advertise how you actually DRIVE yours to the guy next to who rubs his with a diaper.

Keeping the cleanest car is not a competition ... it's an exhibition.

I would say theres definitely the potential for it. I just had my front nose piece repainted since a hill driveway > my car. I plan on getting some sort of clear bra put on.
