Video from my 7/11 track day at Miller Motorsports West Track with the IR Porsche Club. Camera placement updated, but I am still working on setting up the RPM wire, so unfortunately no RPM still!

This was my third session. My fastest time of the day was 1:48.5 second lap of this session. I think I could have managed better but unfortunately day was cut short due to mechanical issue. O2 sensor cam loose at headers and caused the engine to sputter and eventually cut out. In fact on my 1:48.5 lap, you will notice that just before the hairpin I am pumping the gas... oh well ! Fastest time of the day I believe was 1:43 set during time trial by one of the PCA racers

And here is a moment slightly later in the 3rd session when the engine just cuts off completely... I managed to coast to parking lot... thought I had lost an(other) engine, but turned out to be a simple matter of reconnecting the sensor
