Thanks for the video. I was there the weekend before. Weather was nicer, but cool enough that my street tires needed about 2-3 laps to get enough heat in them to go quickly.

Are those GS wheels?

Thanks porschekiller. You were talking to me, my buddy was yelling at me, I was talking to myself-that is some pressure! I kept thinking.."Don't make a mistake., be patient."

BTW-by the last lap when I was closing in, I was on RESERVE FUEL-you can hear it cut out and lose power coming out of the carousel.

Hey Brian, great driving again at RA. I know the feeling when you go on "reserve fuel" on the track.. The gas mileage running out there WOT sure sucks, but awesome fun..

Thanks Bob-

The funny thing was, I had just dropped five gallons in it before I went out. DIC said 6.7 MPG average....

Man, I have been wanting to get that data collection system from PFYC that posts your speed, rpms, (more) on the video - that is the only thing that would make your video better.

I did something similar at Texas World Speedway late one Saturday afternoon. I had very few cars in my group and I was trying to beat my best lap time - I was having my best session ever and rounded a corner and spit, spit, spit - I looked down and NO FUEL...........I had to go pit - by the time I got rolling again the session was almost over.

Thanks again for sharing your fun with us - I love to see the Z being driven the way it was designed to be driven. Keep up the good work - go teach others that have yet to be taught bro!

Me too on the data collection-but not sure how to configure it to my Mini DV camera without using two cameras. Any ideas?

BTW-I have been to TWS, and that is a Z06 track for sure!
