Not many good videos out yet, especially this year, since it's still raining :(

Did someone say "hot, middle-of-nowhere" track?

Thanks for the other videos but maybe better to start a new thread for the other tracks so we can keep this on one topic.

Fine. But you're just jealous of my track.

That Oregon Raceway looks like a kickass track.

Ivor Wigham's rally school, next town over to the north.



I can't wait for some new Florida tracks!

Better ORP vid. This is the Pfadt Racing Z06 turning sub 2 minute laps. I absolutely love this track. The videos don't do the elevation changes justice. This is an early vid before all the curbs were in. With this track available I don't have to be quite as jealous of you CA guys with 1/2 a dozen tracks within a few hours drive.

Just wish there were more MTnetters around to drive it besides Curly and I. Hope some of you Seattle guys will make it down this season.

This old video of mine is better because you can actually see the track, as well as some of the native WV wildlife.

I was almost going to go watch my buddy's Pro3 race there but i'm going deep into canada instead to watch the Knox mountain hill climb.

You going to venture up for any pacific raceways events?

Speaking of Pacific Raceway:

Sarcasm & irony. We haven't had much of that here since 2008. It's kind of lost on guys (gays?) driving turbo'd Miatas.

Yeah, I'm hoping to come up to Pacific soon. One of your Alfa days unless there's a good day with that or another club you like coming up. I missed the April one, it was the day before I left on vacation and couldn't swing it. Priority for deciding on a club to run with is getting the greatest amount of track time in.

This is my 2nd favorite local track (my favorite is 2 hours away so I don't go there often). It's just a conservative lap in traffic:
