Great video Sarkis. Had a great time running with you. Thanks for the picture posts too.
Steve

Thanks, likewise!

Track Club USA and SCMC are doing an open track event September 20-21 on Summit main. There is a discount if you sign up early. I am registered and hope to see you, Sarkis, and Steve there.

That's good to know. I'll definitely try to make it out in September. Would you happen to have the link to their registration site, or club?

FD nice driving. You sure like to move your hands around a lot.

Haha, I can't seem to get used to keeping my hands at 3-9 position... My hands keep hitting my knees and it feels awekward lol. I think the steering wheel is too big in this car. On the plus side, moving my hands keeps the blood flowing , at least that's what I tell myself.

Like the videos. I hope to be out at Summit in September sometime. Buying a house really puts a damper on the fun stuff.

Shaun, sounds like you have your priorities right, unlike me!

Just watched the video, it's almost like you're on a Sunday drive you seem so relaxed. Also I wasn't sure from your video but going into 5, from 4 to 5, are you trying to make that as straight as possible?

As relaxed as I may have been, I was frusterated with 5th gear not cooperating
I've been experimenting with turn 5 entry. Seems like I carry the most speed through it when going in from the middle, which forces me to adjust my exit at 4. So in most cases I wasn't making a true straight line. I think I need to do a late apex at 4 to get a straight line and land in the middle for turn 5 entry.

I was a little more aggressive on Sunday, but haven't had the chance to look at the videos. I'll post up them up later, but it may get boring for you guys

You can definitely late apex 4 which pushes you right to the inside of the beginning of 5. It makes you slow down more going into 5 but it's the slowest corner anyway so you might as well go as fast at it as possible.
