Barber Motorsports Parade Lap

Figtuna · 09-05-2010, 07:28 PM

I was able to get my 2010 370Z Nismo out onto Barber Motorsports Race track for 3 parade laps during the SCCA weekend. Turned out that it was an "Appreciation Day" for car owners that had state issued custom Baber licence plates. It cost nothing and the rules were to follow the lead car in single file and passing was prohibited. I had a 1966 v-8 (298ci) Tiger Sunbean in front of me that keep slowing me down and forcing me onto the brakes. The Nismo performed admirablely as I was nowhere close to it's potential. It was a good thrill and my daughter of 16 was my passenger. She was too cute and wanted to stay out there the rest of the day. Kept saying that she wish the car in front would let us thru or park it! She even took a video. If any of you know how to post a video let me know.

It was a memorable moment
