Videos from NHMS 2

Post by savage217 » Mon Jul 04, 2011 11:57 am

I am sure we all have quite a few videos. I did not see a thread already started so I figured I might as well start one. Here is my time trial video



I guess my run group was one of the luckier ones, although group 11 and on had the best conditions, I cannot complain. The best part was that all 4 cars in group 9 were in SPB so nobody had an unfair advantage, besides Dan Cavaletto who I believe was in group 5 which was much more wet.

Here is one from a session on friday, lots of space on the track. Lap labeled as 7 in the data was about the quickest but I can already see a few places to improve.

Here is my relay rally video. Curious if anyone else has any from the relay.

Looked like a great drive! A little safety tip (and a track rule) please leave your helmet on until after making the turn off the hot pits.

Great videos! Jon & Chrispy's videos were shot at the same time, from two different perspectives.

Jon's rally video includes the pass that put his team in 1st, and at the end of the race, Jon taking the checker. Cool!

In Chrispy's video, you can watch all of the cars that ran the last leg leave the pits. You can also watch that "unique" black/orange Miata/MazdaGT take a "unique" line through 6 and then through 1. :shock: :lol:

I had an awesome time. The rally gave us an opportunity to be spectators for a bit, to watch and cheer on our team mates, and in general, to have a good time. All the while, there was a bit of excitement in the air. Very well done. Thanks Bill, Alan, Sam, all of your volunteer staff, and the flagging/safety team at NHMS.

Can't wait to do it again. :)

Will, I was wondering if that high line through 6 was a special racing line I hadn't learnt, but then you didn't do it again. It's reassuring to see that even the best drivers make mistakes once in a while.

I have to say it's not fun seeing oneself give up the lead!

You certainly didn't want to give it up. Jon made that evident LOL

If anyone was amped up, it was Will. That calm, logical personality hides such competitive fire!

Chris, staying with the Teardrop Special (and forcing an error or two?) is no mean feat, even in a fine car like the RX-8. Nice driving!

It was a pleasure to get acquainted with you a bit, and I look forward to sharing the track with you again.
