Did you see there is a gen 3 for sale on Racing junk? If you get a second one I would be happy to help you out with the driving duties

Yes, Crew Chief did music

I'd prefer Metallica, Aerosmith, Van Halen

Great video - thanks for posting ! Wish you had on screen data overlay for speed. The closing rate on some of the other cars was amazing --

My son and I used to go down to the Grand Am races at Mid-Ohio. The sound of the DP cars exiting the key hole on to the back straight was freaking amazing. Constant goose bumps.

Insane levels of grip in that car! Neat stuff...

Is the driver in the black helmet the same person that can be seen later in the red helmet? It looks to me like the guy in red was faster through the corners and more aggressive with passing? I am seeing things correctly?
