Default Videos of the GSR!

Here's a few vids my GF did today while I drove.

The first one is a nice curved on-ramp. I actually lost the tail at the end and you can hear my girlfriend get a little scared. The other 2 are on a twisty road.

Cool vids! However, you turned in/cut a little early on that on ramp curve and that's why you lifted the gas and felt the back to break loose. Would've been much of a smoother transition if you turned a little late then mash the gas out, coming out even faster than what you did.

Also, try doing some hill/toe shifts. It works great on canyon runs!

I took the on-ramp in 2nd gear, but I've actually taken it in 3rd before going much faster. I promised my girlfriend that I wouldn't scare her too bad, but I ended up scaring her more when I lifted and lost the tail. The curvy roads vids don't look that fast either but in the car it felt pretty hairy!

heh, she's gonna kick your *** now. I was actually surprised at how good she did considering how hard I was turning. Not to mention my rock hard suspension.

Here she is, ready to kick your ***:

Wow, that place looks awfully familiar. Going 15 north...thats from the Target plaza place in Escondido if i'm correct? I could have sworn i saw the same GSR one night when i went to Taco Bell in CMR. Anyways, nice vids man.

edit: You ever try the trails off pomerado? If not, i recommend it. Can't tell from the vids where your canyon runs were from, but it looks like its around the San Pasqual area.

Wow you nailed it except it's 15 south. And it is the Target Plaza. The twisties were right outside escondido but I've done some off Pomerado. I like Highland Valley.

The first video is a great representation of drop-throttle oversteer. In the middle of a turn, you should transition off the throttle gradually, not abruptly.

Nice video btw. It's a good teaching tool on how not to drive.

yeah, I usually don't do those things in the middle of a turn. I was trying too hard to keep my girlfriend from killing me and then I thought about the van I was gaining on really quickly...kinda forgot how to drive. I posted the vid anyway because it's still kinda cool and I didn't want to do another one today.
