My Pops tracks there, never done it personally. My only comment about that track is: The track is narrow, very very narrow.

Not really.


My car will still be in the breaking in stage in October, so no track day for me yet. Also, gotta get tires, and a helmet... And I don't know if I'll fit with a helmet, lol

GSS138 09-20-2013 08:18 PM

hahaha I barely friggin fit w a helmet and I am 5'10". You can rent a helmet for 10 bucks so that's not an issue. If you ever want to just drive up with the local Nissan guys let me know it's usually once or twice a month, it's fun just being at the track even if you don't drive it. You should go sometime.

Maybe I will, and if you barely fit at 5'10", what am I gonna do at 6'3"?!?!?!

GSS138 09-20-2013 08:35 PM

idk tbh, ask martin82. Dude is like 6'4". I guess you need to buy a Bride or Recaro racing seat.

Rusty 09-20-2013 08:37 PM

I'm 6'2". Just have to watch getting and out with the helmet on.

He's not that tall! Lol

But I for sure ain't throwing down seat money to track my DD



From the man himself "6'1""

SE5spd 09-20-2013 09:37 PM

I'm 6' with a helmet I fit super comfortably in a 370z on track, I actually got to drive my first one this weekend.

shadoquad 09-21-2013 12:58 PM

:(

Arrvaxx 09-21-2013 02:00 PM

Haha. Man that sucks. Wonder why he lost it.

GSS138 09-21-2013 02:45 PM

idk VIR but his entry line was really far over to the right, where as he probably should have been more mid track-he hits that enty on that first birm way to early it looks like(think he is trying to catch the vette). Maybe someone that knows VIR can explain better but it simply looks like a bad entry +too high of speed for that chicane+big heavy audi R8 = baja.

DLo 09-21-2013 02:46 PM

My worst nightmare whenever I track my car!

SPOHN 09-21-2013 04:20 PM

I've ran across this one several times. Been there done that.

He was carrying too much speed and slow input with the steering.

cossie1600 09-21-2013 05:44 PM

He was going too far and he turned back to the right too late. He was going 100mph+, you need time for car to react

synolimit 09-21-2013 09:20 PM

Shoulda done the front bike course, safer, less speed.

Wonka2581 09-21-2013 09:22 PM

Was that an R8?
