    Thanks Troy, but she's a street car that can make a go of it on the track. This year for One Lap it was 4051 miles, including on-track, in eight days. New Orleans to Daytona Beach was a 10-1/2 hour ride after a track day at NOLA. It's by far the most fun car week I've ever had.

    Doug, I need to edit the video, but it's pretty interesting coming over the hump. The image gets more and more vibration as the speed increases. My lines could use some help as well but three laps and overspeeding a few turns......

    Here's the main course at VIR. It includes the recon lap. After the recon the cars in that session all stop at start/finish then the three hot laps session starts. This is the first time I've seen the course in full configuration so my lines get better as the session goes on. I watch it now and cringe at how bad some of the lines are for T1 (came in too hot.)

    Well I'm impressed! The lines looked pretty good to me for the most part. Even the recon lap was good! Nicely done! I noticed you staying in front too; nice place to be!
