Small incident on track to share and learn
 

This is the mark of my 14th track day where I have to "learn" how to save from my errors. Luckily fast reaction saved the car since palmer is the most unforgiving track I've run so far.

More details pls see video description

Thank you all for watching! I am trying to start posting more info in thread and youtube 2017!

Not too bad ... could have been much worse for sure.

waz dat a shift grind I heard? messed up shift and u pushed urself trying to catch up to da car in front going in too hot? I waz like woaaah~~ too hot too hot!:eekdance:

:D looks like u had fun though

Thanks for the suggestion! Will do next time.

I don't quite recall but if you spot it right i have to say sharp ears! Car was bone stock back then so everything is quiet.

I do want to catch the 991 Carrera S ahead of me :tiphat:

It is a fun track and Z is a fun track car too!

Looks like you had quite a bit of steering angle when rejoining the track. In that situation, I'd probably stay two-off since there's a straight in front and then get back on with less speed and steering input. There's definitely not much room for error on that track, good job staying out of the tire wall!

Woooo wee! Made ur butt hole pucker haha! Nice save!

Like dis.

At least your windshield was clean. :stirthepot:

Glad you didnt damage anything...

Yup one thing i learned is, don't be afraid of "gardening" as long as it is under control.

Lol panic steering surprise!

I am glad too :icon18:

Lucky day I have to say that...

What group were you running with? I cannot comment as your hands and feet along with head I cannot see. Palmer is a blast but it can *bite* you with the lack of run off. I am there aot instructing with a bunch of different clubs.

I was in the yellow group (Instructed) with NNJR PCA. Plan to do it again this year and maybe see you there :driving:

Man that track looks cool
nice save

What tire size and spring rates were you running?

It was bone stock :tiphat:

I just got to drive Palmer today with my Roadster and it was a blast. It was a fundraiser event for Larz Anderson auto museum. It had a pace car, but groups of 6-7 and the pace car was still exceeding 100 on the straights, so plenty good clip considering over half were Porsches. It was my first time tracking, so didn’t look too hot trailing a guy in a GT3 RS. That said, I didn’t spin out and an S2000 on PS4S did, so I’ll count it a win.
