He wants to make the video as short as possible... thus he drove 3 times faster than usual....

hahah the video is compressed to 13min. the full length was 1 hour 15 min. so its quite sped up. Im in the process of transfering over the footage from today. the go pro stuff from the cruise is not so exciting but the drive home on hwy is what i would probably post soon. It was pretty fun the four of us were just weaving through traffic.
Either way it was very fun today thanks to all who came out. Thank you for not doing anything absurdly dumb to attract more attention to our 10 sports car convoy. For now i think this will remain our route for atleast once a year meet/cruise i'll try to find other similar exciting roads for next season. There are some in muskoka that i tried a couple of weeks back that i think would be nice for use but thats like 2.5-3 hour drive just to get to the starting point. So i dont know how many of you would be up for something like that. There are some more scenic roads in the hamilton-niagara falls area which i think we should check out as well. Also Ben/John you guys should start on the track day idea research from now see how plausible/affordable it can be and lets do this thing. I still think we should look into alternatives like renting a big parking lot somewhere and setting up an autocross track with pylons. Might be a more feasible option. For next season we should also try to secure more passenger/photographer individuals to get more perminent coverage rather than just awsome memories of the events. Either way great turn out, great people, great fun. For those of you who took pictures post them up. i'll post mine this week.

Mr I think the vid of the corkscrew section would be nice to see. I think that section for about another minute after would probably be the best section to post. And ofcourse any with my car in it LOL.

I'd definatelly be up for a track rental at the track closest to me but next year. If we can get the price at $250 or less each would be worth it.

Track day is a possible next season, but we will have to make sure all our Z is track ready, maybe mid-summer is the time frame.
Regarding the route, so far the one today is nice. We can figure out another route for other meet. We have a whole Winter season to find out. I will edit the pictures I took today and post it up ASAP. Also, for those who has took photos today, can I collect the pictures also... I want to see if we have enough pictures to make a video. |

good cruise boys...drive back home was hella fun!!
judging based on how aggressively some of you liked to take those turns...i think track day seems appropriate...i'll get the wheels spinning on this idea...already have a few ideas on mind... weather's getting pretty nasty this week...so dowtown photoshoot maybe next week? we'll play it by ear... |

Wasn't planning to track my Z when I first got it...
BBK is on my mod-list regardless I track or not... But to put on the oil-cooler just for the track... which only happens maybe once/twice a year.... to be... or not to be...... |
