My whole car almost went off the track going counter-clockwise right at Lost Hill. My car killed that cone. I think I might have messed up peoples lines after that.

I didn't take any pics, but I have some video.... So pissed right now because I just spent an hour editing a quick highlight reel together, and Adobe Premiere decided to crash on me just before it finished rendering... I've got to get writing my philosophy final, so keep this thread at the top and I will try to re-edit that video later this week (likely after Thurs. or Fri.).

I parked next to a supercharged Rousch Mustang. ~350hp & ~440lbs of torque

Here are a couple of interesting pics...

Radio station grade octane fuel...weird


Top 3 drivers (Sandor, Glen, Andy) prefer TE37s

Thomas should have in-car footage of his spin...

...and in my clip there is a bunch of dirt that gets kicked up at my car...I think Thomas is the one that put the dirt on the track

Okay, I am not making any progress on the school work I have due this week ( ), so I had to make a simple video. This footage is all from Saturday, configuration 13 counter-clockwise I believe. First session I didn't film because the track was still cold. Second and third sessions I filmed and then edited into the highlight clip that I'm posting now. Fourth session I *thought* I was recording, but I guess I pushed some button other than record at the start . I'm pissed because this was by far my fastest session of the day, and I totally rolled that Mustang that held me up the last two laps of the 3rd session. Oh well, hope you all enjoy it.

Ding, ding! You are correct on both counts. It is System of a Down, and I was ripping it up! It was a really fun weekend!

We need to see Thomas' spin...but he is probably too busy cleaning out the inside of the car to bother uploading the video.
