So I went to my first track day. Instant francorchamps and it was freaking brilliant. They always say its one of the most beautifull tracks in the world and they are right. It is just stunning.
First half was quite sucky, only did one lap and the track was soaking wet and VDC saved me quite some times + I sucked not knowing the lines
.
But in the afternoon it dried and it was just godawesome. in the beginning I was doing 6 minutes a lap but in the end I was doing 3 minute laps, ok it might not be the fastest laps but it was awesome.
end result was tires all sticky, melty and shiny. The front tires had wet spots of molten rubber and strings of rubber.
The temperature was quite high though. I was lucky that I was just below the "bleh too high REV LIMITER LOL" temperature.
My dad's GT-R needs new tires completely gone.
there were several crashes most being porsches and BMWs. Saddest crash was this beautifull jaguar oldtimer.
I lack pictures of me on the track but there were plenty of people taking pictures so il find them eventually.
There were plenty of expensive cars too.

It is pretty scary taking a turn while there is a fricking murcielago next to you.
