BOSS Track Attack !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Track Attack !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great vids, Scott! Was the last one you posted your first ride with Charlie? Was it an LS or did it just have the gauge pack added to a regular Boss?

Re: Track Attack !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only the LS cars had the gauge pack. I'll post my ride along video with Byron after I do a bit of editing this weekend. I rode with Byron and Joe and both of them were driving "flat out" with Joe being smoother and Byron using more of the track. The hot laps with the pros was worth the price of admission by themselves.

It was the LS and the first time I was a passenger that weekend, it is the last thing they do.

There has not been a lot said about about that track but everyone had a shocked looked on their face when they arrived. I have run a few nice tracks down here but that facility is like being in a five star hotel compared to a motel 6.

Re: Track Attack !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its unfortunate they don't offer an advanced day for people that have a little experience. I talked to them back in the first of August and was making preperations for coming that first week until they explained what exactly it was. They said the experienced driver needed to take the 2nd day. Probably won't be doing this unless they offer something more advanced. Looks like a very fun track with nice people and staff though.

Rick, were you driving or Byron? Also, what did you video with?

 

[STIG302]

Re: Track Attack !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ride along with Charlie

Scott, what did you video with?

That was Byron driving, I was waaaaay slower than him. I shot that with my iP4 using a Panavise mount and SnapMount iP4 holder. It has more vibration than I'd like and there was less vibration with me driving.

Scott was using a GoPro with a helmet mount.
