Man, I love watching the sun set over the 12 Hours race, but damn that bumpy surface looks like it wreaks havoc on dampers.

Haha watching that video made me feel like I was playing Forza! Bumps look like they'd rattle your teeth.

Is that a GoPro? Not sure if it'd help with the cam so far back, but the GoPro has a center-weighted exposure setting that will help expose the area out in front of the car better (instead of the interior).

How did you like the PSS on course? I'm looking into those for my next set.

yeah I've had a few guys tell me to change to the other setting, but honestly I haven't changed a single setting since I got the camera.

and the PSS are fun. Good feedback, react well on the edge of grip, sidewalls seem to be pretty good as well.

I loved my time on Sebring but Im trying slowing down on track time due to tire usage. Ive almost eat through a set of RS3s in 4 months between 3 track days and 9 autocrosses and 2 mini-time attacks (Think more open autocross on a linked track, 5 laps on a ~30 second setup). I just cancelled my trip to AMP because my set is gone Im ordering a new set soon but I want them in good shape for Dixie in March

Sucks that you cancelled. My AD08s are lasting very well

Some laps from the same PCA event at Sebring, this felt like my worse session of the day but it's the only one I ran the camera for that lasted more than a few laps.
