Track Video Thread

Henry I can't say enough good things about you and your driving. I can't remember the last time I was driving that hard and because of it made that many mistakes! It was an absolute blast and I thank you for it. Next time I will bring my A game and hopefully the results will be different lol. For anyone looking to learn how to drive the Glen do a GVC BMW event and ask for trackjunky to be your instructor!

I still owe that silver E46 $20 for not letting you by at turn 2.....

Here's my view of the battle.

The surface at this track (MSR Houston) turns to total garbage when it is hot and sunny. It is inconsistent where the track loses grip. Let's say it was a tricky weekend. The car still did well. No issues other than a falling bolt and washer from something (I think the sunroof delete). About 3 seconds off my PR which isn't bad considering it was hot as hell and the Toyo RRs are almost at the end of their life.

[Wernd]

Lol, they are. RE71RS's.

Keep in mind they can get greasy and go off a cliff like the old RE01R did. So you can't drive them as hard as the RE71R

If your new tires aren't the newer bridgestone good luck with a better time

Lol, they are. RE71RS's.

Warmer day (for the midwest) at blackhawk farms, first time setting a time on this car there, with old RE71R tires and a passenger.

Nice driving but fail on properly embedding the video.

That looks like a fun little course. I was in Milwaukee for 3 years, never got a chance to go there since my engine blew up at Road America.

Thanks! It was with Revmatch, early July. Hope to be back again late this month, with some suspension tweaks and new tires, to see if I can cut a little more time off.

Looks like a solid lap! Was this at the Windy City event there last month?

I'm curious if Ozarks will be given the green light for hosting a BMW HPDE next year. A feasibility track day will happen very soon to see if it's possible, fingers crossed

Every time I get one of your email newsletters, I look up how far those tracks are from the PNW, lol. Ozarks looks amazing.

[trackjunky]

Why would you wanna hit the wall? Too soon?

Touche 😂

[Wernd]

7 laps at Mid-Ohio chasing friends and then being chased by a GT4 I had passed earlier in the session when he was warming up his Hoosiers. I was trying hard to stay ahead! Flashed the black E36 hoping for a point at the end of the back straight and I should have done the same with the yellow Vette....... If I had I would have made the checkered without letting the GT4 by. NSFWL at the end because I was disappointed that a half lap after I let him by the session was over LOL

I will fix the shaky cam before the Genesee Valley event at Watkins Glen the end of September
