Can't get enough of that track! Another great video

Was that GT350R holding back? I thought he'd be a lot quicker like the M3/4 that passed you guys and was on it!

Thanks, man! I'm so glad I've sorted out my picture & audio.. The videos are much more enjoyable to watch now.

I wouldn't say the GT350R driver was holding back, but he obviously wasn't super comfortable pushing very hard yet.. He'd just gotten it one month prior.. Plus, this was his first time on that circuit.. After the first session, he mentioned to me that he had a difficult time learning the track.. I suggested he ask for a coach for the second session (this video).

Here's video from the 4th session, which combined groups B & C. Hey, whose USB IS-F is that? Anyone we know??

Yea, the audio and video are working out great! This makes sense because it didn't look like he was pushing that thing at all and looked uncomfortable or holding back. Was wanting to see what that thing could do if the owner was comfortable and pushing it 9/10ths

Looking forward to the next outing with the local IS F family.
Those are some aggressive tires.

I have attended roughly a dozen track days with my F over last 18 months. This was my first time at this Track Mid Ohio a 15-turn, 2.4 mile (3.86 km) road circuit run clockwise. The back portion of the track allows speeds approaching 180 mph. (Indy) I must say for a 8 year old car Toyota builds them right. Cant say enough good things about RR Racing tune and customer support. I think next year Ill upgrade to a Penske setup and some race tires. Enjoy.

Let the F stretch her legs for the 1st time at Road Atlanta...It was my first time as well. This was a SCCA PDX event. So as a novice I was limited to 100 mph. Still loads of fun!!!!

Thats what happens at the limit. I guarantee his suspension is not stock and his tires dont have a lot of tread on them. Amazing driving !

The pilots held up pretty good...I definitely think Road ATL is the best so far I have been to (Nelson Ledges, AMP, and Roebling)....

must have been great. So much nicer looking than the desert tracks here in AZ. Just dirt and road. You guys have grass and trees. Makes the pics look nicer too
