NHMS 4 videos
Let's see those videos guys! Here is my time trial run. I think I let off before the start/finish on my last lap. My fast lap ended up being a 1:19.0. I just got the lap timer for this event so I think the fact I had my beacon setup right at the beginning of the front straight made me forget that the real timer was at the start/finish
There goes my 1:18

Re: NHMS 4 videos
I'll post some video this week. Mario Fallas and I had a great session swapping point bys that I can post where we were running 1:17s on clear track. From that single session we learned from each other and both improved our personal bests by a second or more. The TT results when posted will show that!
I learned a ton from following Greg Loupis too. I wouldn't have realized how well he got off T12 without the radar gun though. That radar gun really insulted me at first.

Glad to be of help. I know the season isn't over yet but you'd get my vote for most improved driver .naschmitz wrote:

dido, that was a ton of fun, speaking for myself, the lap time was a surprise & the icing on the cake , it was like doing a short sprint race with fewer cars in it!
I CAN'T WAIT TO DO IT AGAIN!

Thanks for the kind words, Greg. I hope to have enough points to win the American Iron award. That and the SPA Class Championship will be plenty.betelgeuse wrote: Glad to be of help. I know the season isn't over yet but you'd get my vote for most improved driver .

Re: NHMS 4 videos
I see you caught video of the session with the MR2 guy. I was behind you two watching the situation unfold. Long story short, I spoke with him, and he was pretty much at stimulus overload and wasn't sure why you weren't passing him. His points were given with only a light lift of the throttle, which we both know isn't generous enough for some of us. As you see around the 3:00 mark, it takes me the entire straight into the brake zone at 3 to make a pass.
You are really hauling arse!!!

You are welcome, Mario. Your car is fun to watch. I've watched that vid a couple times already -- certainly one of the most fun sessions I've had on track all year.Mario Fallas wrote:thanks for the vid Bert, first time i've seen video of my car on the go!

Practice hard with your computer simulator this winter -- I'm coming back next year with race seats. Get ready to run some 1:15s and 1:14s!

Great video Bert . . . and Mario.
Re: NHMS 4 videos
Here is my 1st morning practice session on my street tires. Ended up running a PR on street tires of 1:20.0.

I put a longer, unedited version here :
This starts when Mario and I go through the hot pits after catching up to a line of cars. You get a good view of Mario's car that way.
Is it just me or does the same video uploaded on YouTube look better than Vimeo these days?
