Default Track Day Video at Texas Motor Speedway with TDE Aug 07 Night Run

This is from the night event hosted by The Drivers Edge last August. The video is made up of several clips taken on and off the track during the event, the last lap has telemetry. It was a fun outing except when it got dark , the main oval was like day light but the infield was darker than the inside of a Black Cat! The camera could see better than I could!

I was also having an issue the the oil overheating. The Texas heat arrived a few days earlier with temps of 100+ until the sun went down. By midnight, when I packed it in, the temp was still 94 . The car was only good for about hard 3 laps, then I had to take it easy until the oil temp dropped. I have since installed a DRM radiator with an EOC. All better now!
