Can't Stop Watching This, Leh Keen Shifting
 
Since I'm getting so much into tracking I've been watching endless hours of track vids. Especially footage from Road Atlanta which is local for me but will end up being my favorite track. But this guy is nice to watch. New to me but most probably heard of Leh Keen.

In that first video his seat seems to move around an awful lot!

While I was viewing those I noticed the one from Watkins Glenn. He must have passed 40 cars in 3 laps :-)

Leh Keen is a bad ***. Especially in the rain. Some may have already seen this, but I thought it was worth sharing.

It's incredible. He still reached over 245kph on the straights... :-) The car must have some serious downforce to keep from hydro planing.

He drives every lap like it's his last.

Beat me to it! :P That is one of the best racing videos I've ever seen. I've seen some commentary from him about that video and how he was overdriving the car to make it push and oversteer to keep heat in the tires.

Yeah, his commentary, along with the video is pretty cool. Here it is. The interview begins around 1:35.

That looks fun. I would love to do that. I love driving in the rain. Separates the men from the boys.
