I did my first time trail with the Tarheel Triangle Z club this last weekend at Roebling Road Raceway.

This edited videos shows me passing two track-prepped BMW M3s, with my best time of 1:22:102.

Of course I spun just after passing the red M3, doh!

But look who spun out ahead of me and blocked the track !

IMHO, not bad for an FD touring that is not stripped, just (4) 850cc, Steve Kan tune, AD coilovers, Tri-point front sway-bar, stock turbos, and Kumho 710's (225's & 265's), and SMIC.

Enjoy,

Bump, so i can find this tomorrow; have to be at work early and can't watch it tonight.

 

Man you're pretty good. Looks like alot of fun.

I wish there was a track like that around me.

Thanks for the vid.

 

Man that was pretty clean for most of the video, are those 3rd gear corners? man you must be flying, I havn't really pushed my 7 yet, so I don't know if that is fast or not, so please forgive my ignorance.

 

Yes, I am taking most of the corners in 3rd gear. Only Turn #9, the last turn BEFORE the straight am I taking in 4th gear about 100+ mph.

If I can ever muster both the ***** and rhythmn/timing, most of the corners can be taken in fourth gear!

Nice! I really need to get my 7 to a track to figure out how to drive it, most of my turns that I take are low speed 2nd gear turns, I am afraid to go much faster and be cornering hard.

 

Very fast course, looks like. Sweet vid, thanks for sharing,

 

Nice vid; i like the fast sweeping corners there, looks like a lot of fun.
