Mazda Rotaries at Deals Gap (Tail of the Dragon) April 8th-10th, 2005
Nice Video...it feels a lot fast than mine but maye it's becasue of the wind noise. Yep, we were keeping up with bike's....recieved a thumbs up!
I don't think that video had the S-turn in it. What a bummer. It's a nasty snappy Laguna Seca type S-turn. I should call it the "Li'guna."
<i>Wow, looks like someone laid their bike down on one of the curves...</I>
I almost hada guy go down in front of me. It would have been a nice snack. The guy tried to pass the car in front of me. He ran out of room and got on the brakes hard which resulted in tank slappage."

Spending time with fellow car enthusiasts, especially rotor heads, is always a bonus.

Can I ask this question and maybe you don't want to answer it on the board and can shoot me a PM. How was the order for the sponsors decided?
Are you shipping out? Sucks you can't go either way.
