Default Track comparison - My EG/Ariel Atom/Lotus Elise Exige - Track Day Footage & Pics

*I posted this in the AC Forum, but I wanted to post this in here for all the track heads that don't frequent that section*

Here are a few pics & a video from my last track day yesterday. I was bumped up to Group A, and got a chance to play around with some of the BIG boys! I shaved about a second off my fastest lap time at Pacific Raceways (Kent, WA), and now have a personal best time of 1:43!

Weather was awesome...Sunny, 84 degrees! Now onto the pics....

My hoopty

Mmm..brake dust anyone?


Some of the BEASTS in Attendance!








I'm a sucker for Porches' on Fiske wheels



A clean, slammed RX8 on RPF1s running in Group B

Now onto some footage! My EG chasing around an Ariel Atom and a Lotus Elise Exige. Ariel Atom & I are on street tires, and the Lotus Elise is on Advan A048 r-comps. Enjoy!

from the footage its easy to see its more the driver. the fact op is catching up to a ariel atom in the bends (in a 200whp civic) proves it.

nice driving

Here is another video I found on youtube of a FAST Neon SRT-4 chasing me around the track at last month's event. You'll start seeing my EG around 2mins into the video...

I honestly don't remember. I think he might have been on RE01Rs.
