Was out at the Autobahn country club in Joliet, Il today
Was an all day event that ended up raining most of the time.
But rain or shine we race!

3.5 mile 21 turn road course with all sorts of cars.

I had a freaking blast.
Did some experiementing with a camera and headrest with some tie straps.
Worked pretty well. Autobahn1.avi the cam started to point down after a bit.
Only a minute or so of not the best view until I noticed and fixed.

Sorry for the music, played a song that had some swear words.
Even more sorry about the 2nd song that played in the Autobahn2.avi.
I was zoned and didnt realize it was still playing.

240 for the event which was:
6 sessions, 20 minutes long, rotating with 3 groups. And a nice lunch.

There is no passing in the corners, and passes require a wave bye.
2 wheels off the course is considered an out, and you get black flagged and must go to the pits.
But they let you back out after making sure all is good.
2nd time your done for that session.
3rd time you go home.


I didnt touch the grass once
had a few close calls tho. Seen the guy behind be spin out.
Some guy smashed the rear end of his Lotus Elise, oops!
He went home on a tow truck.
There were tons of nice cars out there. I probably had one of the cheapest ones, lol.
A very nice facility and course.

For me top speeds were about 110 when dry, 95 in the wet, mostly 2nd & 3rd gear.

So if you have nothing to do for the next 45 min or so take a look and test out my
Internet host transfer limits.

I downloaded the divx, but the videos are not there it says "oops page not found". Too bad I would have loved to see them.

 

Fixed, must have been the way I copied and pasted.

 

AWESOME !!!!!, Looks like a lot of fun. Too bad the weather didn't cooperate. BTW was that the Steeda Cowl hood ??

 

The rain made it interesting, and a testiment to Goodyear F1 GS D3's in the rain
Yessir it is. 300 bucks used already painted from a friends car, with hood pins.
