The video of your little "off" says to me you have natural talent, calmness under crisis and/or plenty of previous experience.
You entered too fast, set 2 off on the outside which begun rotation and you kept the momentum in check, the balance under control and calmly drove it into the grass on the other side with very little steering input. I can't tell you how many people would have: 1: Two feet in'd 2: over-counter-steered leading to a spin 3: lifted 4: yanked the wheel and lifted. Great job, great video and thanks for sharing. |

I was following a BRZ for a little while and he was all over the place trying to figure out how I was staying on his back bumper. Guess he almost put it in the wall at one point at the last corner.

Your lap looks pretty good. I don't have the raw data from some of mine, but I was running low 1:22's in ours. I was running about 108/109 down the end of the front straight which probably helped my times. I think 9-10 combo I sustained 65 in the upper section and about 74 turning in for 10 which is where I'm sure that extra straight speed came from. Any more track events planned? Tony |

1:22 That's awesome! There was definitely more left in my car in the corners but that was only my second track day and I already felt like I was pushing the car pretty hard, it is my daily after all lol! Planning on hitting Putnam as much as possible next year as I am very comfortable with the lack of walls there. Would like to try another track at some point although I'll probly be a little more conservative. Was you there when the Porsche GT crashed? http://jalopnik.com/5951945/porsche-...ace-track-gods

Your car looks great.
Would you say the BC coilovers are worth it? Quality wise as well as performance wise. |

We digitized Putnam a few years back at my old software company for use in simulation. I've never been to Putnam, but I have been around the track about 1.7 million times, lol. For your first track day, you were on it! Nice job sir!

A really fun and 'safe' track for sure! See above. As far as I know they only have the one 'line' for our car.

Just looked it up, and this track is only 5hrs away from me . What is the club/sanctioning body that handles the track days there. I would like to get a schedule.
