Third time in 10 years at that track, give it a couple of days more and I will find my way around.

My biggest problem at any track is that im still baby my car, little scared to crash it even if that will eventually happen anyway.

hey thats more then most of us, i only dream of it, but things are in the works to get some track time next year as soon as i start looking for a track car. I dont blame ya on taking care of your car, i would be too, but mad props, i like it when the instructor gave you the thumbs up for nailing that one turn. I was like "yeah buddy" hehe.

keep the vids comming, i enjoy them.

Thanks thats nice to hear. =)

THE best thing you can do is try to run with instructors as mutch as possible and listen to what they say. Many of them have 10+ years of experience.

1 trackday with instructor are at least worth 5 days without, if not even more.

You can see more vids here: http://vimeo.com/user4245480/videos

Great runs Ingemar. You got faster and faster. I really like the way you got through the chicane (Dunlop tire corners) late in the vid. Breaking later and power earlier. You were holding your own against your buddy in the yellow 8. Good driving!!

Looking for a track car myself. Maybe an FC or FD.

I found a cheap helmet camera at Frys for $40.00. Going to rig up something for parade laps at Laguna Seca in a couple of weeks.

thanks, The end of "parisern" part (where you see the dunlop tire) is little tricky. in the end of the day I holded the pedal down from the long sweeper apex al the way into the chicane. the chicane itself is tricky you must line up perfectly for straight braking into it and after that just trash it right into the straight. Look how the instructor dose it in heat 2 movie.

It didnt help that I almost lost it there one week earlier in the rain. http://vimeo.com/24605730

Fun to see my lines compared one week earlier to the ones from the instuctor, I was wise to invite an instructor. =)

Dont forget to post that, must be fun to run that parade at Mazdas famous track.
