Great save!
Viperdays has great people and great instruction. With Lou Gillotti giving classes this year it should be incredible! The SWC has had date conflicts the last few years or I'd be there too - I love that track.
Thanks for the video.

Odd... my Spec Miata can only get to 100mph on the up hill eses, NICE SAVE.... did pass an 911 Turbo X50 at a PCA event there in the intermediate group (no non porsches in the advanced group?)

For a learning tool, a wider angle viewpoint would be more effective. You'd see a lot more of the lay of the land leading to the line you eventually took. Allows for expanded feedback from others as to the approach, turn in and exit.
I hope to make VD at VIR this year w/the LG clinic. Hope to see you there.

Even Glen/Brians setup left me in the dust on the backstraight last time when I had a pretty good run out of 7...getting heads ported and new cam, let's see if it helps the ol'cracker.

Great Vid.
What were you driving Teddy?
I may have been the blue Z06 you passed coming out of oak tree. Of course, if that was me, and I'm not saying that it was mind you, but if it was me, my tires were cold. Or a better excuse would be that I had high engine or trany temps. Yea, yea, that's it. High temps.
If I could only do one event a year it would be at VIR with the Viper Day folks (now Performance Driving School). I've done 6 or 7 events with them and I'm spoiled. Normal club DE's where you spend the weekend trying to get past BMW's and slow Porsches just doesn't cut it anymore.

There is nothing wrong the Porsches, try chasing some of the Cup cars now that is fun.
