LOL.

It will be interesting to see how TrackClubUSA reacts to me and my 2006 Corvette this October at VIR when I tell them I want to be in their fastest run group. I drive flat out. Flat out is how I like to drive. My car has racing shocks and racing brakes. You would not understand ... ha ha :D

The instructor should have just directed the guy to Lime Rock where he might feel more at home.

I remember talking to this guy at LRP with a BMW club event about 10 years ago or so. Just about the same comments without the video reference.
Ended up stuffing his Porsche 930 into the tire wall at West Bend.

He looks different in the video now.
