Scooter, it looks like you had a great time out there; the most important aspect in racing. I can assure you, hand position is not.

This 100%. The only hand position I can recommend is maybe a quick shot of the finger on decel down a straightaway.

My car is lowered & coming down the back side of that table top, under heavy braking it rubs...

Thanks man!

Got a chance to watch the entire video. Looked great. And the track is awesome. Looks fast and fun . Smooth and flowing. Thanks for sharing bud. Like I said, the track F'ers are the rarest of the breed.

Thanks man. Yeah that configuration is my favorite. The other is the original 1.7 mile track. Both are fun but the 3.1 is the most technical & fun. Im looking forward to going to MSR Houston in June. Ive never driven that track before. Im sure one session & ill have the line down...

I8ABMR

Enjoy. The added room always allows you to stretch her legs a bit. Always a bit more fun when you have line down because you can push even harder. I have been dreaming of hitting Circuit Of the Americas in Austin. Its so far and so expensive to run , BUT the pictures alone with those crazy red,white, and blue stripes would be worth the cost and time

You're not the only one that's been dreaming of a track day at COTA I was there for the Formula 1 race in 2014. What a great track & venue! That climb up to turn 1 is way bigger than it looks on TV

I was there in 2014 also! Yeah thedriversedge.net is who i do my track days through. They do a 2day, down there every year, but you can only run one day, cause they book so many ppl. But yeah its super expensive. $600-800 if i remember correctly. But i will def have to do it one day!

I8ABMR

speak of the devil. I got an email from Speedventures in Cali inviting drivers for $545 !! Damn man !! Thats like 3 track days in AZ. Id still pay it to add it to the list but it would be a big trip in more ways than 1. Hopefully one day

Here in the Southeast they're $275 to $350 for the usual PCA or BMWCCA events. I run with Tarheel Z Club too, and they're about the same. With track insurance, gas, brakes and travel time, it ends up being about $1000 a weekend no matter how you slice it.

I will be buying the wife a Cayenne later this year to help with the PCA costs...

ey man I live in grand prairie and been wanting to take my F to the track but have been nervous and haven't had anyone to go with when is the track open to public

I8ABMR

I have been wanting to add up the costs for the 14 track events. Its not as cheap as I may have thought. Still totally worth it in my book and the wife is TOTALLY cool with it. She encourages me to go out and hit the track.
Congrats in advance on the Cayanne !!
