Default Who had the Black Z06 with Blue tape at Laguna Seca last Sunday?

My wife got a couple of good shots of your "creative" line through the corkscrew that I thought you might like

Glad he or she is OK. I'm sure that was an eye opener.

Maybe one more reason to consider upgrading my front calipers to big brakes.

I was in the Blue C7 and first look was thinking Man... I don't remember that!
It was probably overweight with that much tape on it.

Sorry for the false alarm.... But I have some good shots of you and me on the track also (taken by CaliPhotography)

Yes it was a really fun day. I have some more shots that I will upload when I have some time. Looking forward to running with you again also. What was your fast lap of the day? You were flying!

I don't know if it was the new choked down muffler I was trying or what, I was only doing 1:37's, when the speed god's are on board I do 1:33's. (excuse insert here)
PM sent with some in car shots.

I didn't get a PM from you.

By any chance do you have any video with Data, or some Aim Data from some of your fast laps? This was my second day at LS and the first day there with this car. My best time was 140.02 but I know there are a lot of opportunities for improvement. I already know quite a few areas where I can improve, but seeing the data or video from someone faster would be helpful.

Thanks,
Charley

I sent the link through the forum email a member.
Do same or pm me your email adress and I'll send you the video link. Hopefully their system not down. I've got some video looking forward and backward of the two of us.
Should have said something I would have done some lead follow.
