Default inaugural race at ncm

We were lucky enough to take part in the first sanctioned race at NCM. We ran the 2 mile west course. It was a blast! ! My editor software is being a pain so I'll try to post raw footage a little later. The track was fairly technical with high speed turns leading into decreasing radius.

No problem - I'm glad you enjoyed it. First time trying to film and edit a video. We learned that the camera was too low in the car to get a good shot out the windshield.

The track is a blast and is very well designed. There is tons of run off room in the corners and the elevation changes add a nice twist. I'd like to run the full course to see what it's like.

Thanks for posting. We were in #55 Camaro. Unfortunately, our engine let us down the first day. We have a little work to do over the winter.

You clearance the block? We will be at the Road Atlanta race in Feb - hopefully we'll see you there.
