and he took off. I was car sick afterwards, but what a blast!! over in 46 seconds or something crazy! exhilarating!
The standing around is for BSing and trash talking. surely you can do that

You talk to the camera, LOL!!

Danegrey sent me a link to what he has. It is Optrix. I ordered it last night along with some Adams products for my exhaust tips...have't heard back from the track registration peeps yet. thinking I may call them today.

and yeah-I KNOW it's a datsun...but mechanical things break. even the best ones! LOL! as long is it is not a boat I should be good to go! (boats always break when I am on them).

Car sickness: You can take dramamine, which makes you tired, or try ginger.

Yes I talk to my camera, but a few hours of it may get me committed.

One more bit I found: Nelson Ledges Road Course - Everything2.com This is not how I'd drive my first time at a track but this fellow has a ten year old perspective and things could be different. Finding info about this place is slow.

Yesterday driving home in the rain and fog I got stuck behind an Accura SUV. I had a chance to pass but I thought I'd be a good boy. Did I regret that decision. Eventually I got ready for another pass with the VDC off. Just at that point, he pulled over, I had a hard time laying down the power. I was trying to wave thanks while spinning my rear wheels in the wet (VDC off). I get it under control, start to accelerate when out of the fog were two cars moving at 10 MPH or less. It startled me as I broke hard. Half a mile later these two cars pulled over and now the fog was so thick I drove by rote.

Not the best drive home but with the VDC off it made for very aware driving.

Life is wonderful, still raining but wonderful.
