Mosport Lunch Hour Lapping!!!

Extraordinary Engineering
I find it amazing how flat television makes a track.
I have a superbike race on my pvr in HD, and it almost eliminates the elevation changes from the course.
There were a lot of complainers though about the speed - I really don't know what you were thinking the event was going be like.
Great Idea, and if I still have the 8, and the event is repeated - will be there next year.
The castrol Canadian touring car race was interesting. That little orange MINI was quite fast. The vette and viper owned the field - kind of out of place if you ask me. Then the vette got pushed out and crashed at the bottom of 2 in the tires - almost saved it.
The 3 rotor RX-7 that shot 6ft flames on each liftoff was quite entertaining. If the sound was any indication, then it should have been the fastest - although I don't think it was doing much faster laps than the mini. Anyone close to the back of it would have been barbecued.
Good event - for those who didn't stick around for the race, you missed out.
Thanks Bruce for the Event! Well organized and the price was right![Evil Laughter](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/evil_laughter.gif)
And Al in that Mazdaspeed 3 - perfect colour!
Some nice cars, and good to put some real faces and names to the avatars.

I walked the 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 section of the course after a race. The elevation changes are really big on foot and really scary at speed!
Re Speed. Were the complaints that we were too fast or too slow? I expected them to limit our speed but was happy to be limited by my own bravery (or lack).
I would've stayed to watch the race but had to take my daughter home

Bruce, thank you so much for a rare opportunity. If it happens again I'll be there, hopefully with better suspension

Hey, don't you guys have Moms? You know MOTHERSday?? ...ok, I'm jealous.
Did that track on my bike...very VERY challenging, you'll need more than 10 laps to really figure it out.
