Here's a local guy at the track with an NA S2k-powered Corolla.

I could only stomach about half of the video before I hit the stop button. I couldn't take anymore of the retarded music.

But from what I did see, looks like he needs more track time cause he shifts WAY to much. I use to do the same thing. I am willing to bet on it that if he didn't shift as much he would see a decrease in lap times. He has a ton of rpms to work with...no way he should be shifting that much on such a short track.

The music was because he was pissed. To get track time here you pretty much have to go to club events. He was with a Porsche club and weren't really following the rules (letting him pass when they were supposed to) because he was in a 'lowly' Toyota.

Yeah you suppose to wave the faster guy by. The first set of Porsche's he wasn't threatening, it was until he got to the Black Porsche that he was getting held up. I had the same issue with a Miata at my track. Held me up for 2 laps until I pretty much yelled at a corner worker to give him the passing flag.
