Fun at Mid Ohio

Attended a NASA HPDE at Mid Ohio the other weekend. Got some good runs in and watched some good races. Also got a chance to try out a new digital video cam. Here's my first attempt with the new toy. Thanks to JLUCAS for hosting the video.

Thanks for posting
... looks like passing was orderly ... were you running Group 2 or Group 3?
How much track time did you get?

I was in Group 2. There were 4, 20 minute sessions each day.

All in all -- a lot of fun! NASA is running Groups 2-4 without instructors now -- which added to the fun.

George,
That's a great video. Nice job to whoever put that together. Thanks for giving me my track fix for the evening.

Mid Ohio is such a great track. Looks like NASA did a good job with that DE. As noted above, passing looked very orderly.

Good video, but would have been improved without the electronic noise.....engine sound would've been more appropriate.

Cool video! Thanks for sharing. Mid-Ohio is a great track. On my "to do" list.

George,

Could you send me the link to the NASA group that is running at Mid-Ohio please. When we move the St Louis, that track is on the to do list.

I ran on Monday and Tuesday at the Glen with NASA/PDA in group 4 and it was a total blast. Brad thanks for the advise about the carbontech pads, they are amazing.

Tom

Thanks! Hard to tell if I will be out there by then, the housing market here is really slow and selling a house this year is not fun at all. The fly out Monday and back on Friday is starting to get old...
