I'm not much of a track person, but this thread catches my interest. Subbed.

And I'm sure this is in here somewhere, but this is probably one of my favorite track videos.

Took me too many times to find it. I am tired. I kept focusing on the NB that was in front of it that went off track, didn't see it up ahead.


So here are two videos that I've watched time and time again, not sure if they've been posted here before.

Default "That Guy"

NASA Time Trial is a fun group. Almost without exception, the drivers are fast and courteous. It's open passing, and the driving is cooperative so that everyone can get the max out of themselves and their cars.

Like I said, "almost without exception." Unfortunately, there's always "that guy." In this case, he drove a Porsche 935 stuffed with an LS motor running in TTU class but driving slower than the TTE entries. Just watch . . . .


He finally spins about halfway through which lets me and others get some laps in. I manage to DQ myself at the end by overcooking Big Bend just a bit though.

More video of "that guy."


Got tired of being behind him so let Kim Whitener and Nathan Wainwright take over while I slowed way down to open a gap for running. That worked great and by the time I caught Nathan, "that guy" was in the middle of a spectacular spin to the inside of Ricochet.
