The description dos say the GT was a newb at tracks, but it's still might impressive to watch anyway. guy is a rather good driver!

 

wow, thats pretty cool. that GT pulls like a teenager with a playboy. just goes to show you that just owning the tools doesnt mean you know how to use them. this also gives me hope for when my dad and i finish our 85 GSLSE.

That is Thunderhill Raceway in willows California. I have been to that track 3 times but I have never seen them use the 2 sets of cones to slow drivers down at the end of the straights.

The ford GT driver was not only a newb but a very cautious and timid driver.

I RX7 driver was okay but he turns in too soon and hits his apex way too early which caused him to lose momentum through the turns and his exit speeds were too slow.

 

i like that video!! thanks for sharing

 

They both seem pretty noobish to me. That Ford GT was driving so ridiculously slow though. Must be some dorky doctor or something. I did enjoy how he just opted out of the cone chicane on the straight away.

 

Didn't look like either driver were really pushing their car, especially the GT.

 

If I had a ford GT I'd drive it as slow as possible also.

 

thats a fb rx7.. im pretty sure the driver was giving it all he could. dont they only have 100hp? they do only weigh 2300lbs though.

that ford gt looked positively stationary during some turns however. it sure pulled like hell on the straights though.

 

Yeah, he's an overly cautious driver but that GT is pure sex on a track.
