Very cool !! Nice driving bud. A lot of nice cars on the track with you and looked like the track allowed the F to stretch its legs . Seemed like you had a lot lap traffic in the first 2 videos. Beautiful track too. Thanks for sharing the videos

What mount do you use to position the camera where it's at or is it suctioned to the moon roof glass?

Really nice!!! Great driving and it looks like you were able to show off what the F can do on the track. What is your car setup (mods?) and what tires/brakes were you using?

My Camera is a gopro and it is mounted upside down and with the suction from the moon roof.
My ISF has Tein springs, 15 mm spacers and at the time of the video it had muffler delete with straight pipes (I put back to stock, too much drone), Hawk HP Plus brake pads (I prefer the stock brembos) and 225 Potenza RE-11 up front and 275 Goodyear Asymmetric in the rear (which were also worn). I noticed the day before that my fronts were corded so I had to buy the only summer tire they had. I normally run 245 up front hence the understeer then oversteer especially in turn 6 (you can notice in the video) Also has to do with the different tire compounds.

I have 1-2 more opportunities to hit the track before the Summer. After that we will be in out 5 months of Summer and there;s no way in hell Im tracking my car with ambient temps near 100 degrees . Think I might just drop a fresh set of PSS and new rotors and go back to commuter mode until the end of the year

Cool vids. Whats up with the crazy Integra in session 1?

Also, where do people get track insurance for single days?

The Integra was nice and had a lot of carbon fiber. It looked fast because I was actually cooling down the car for a little. You can see that I normally start slow to warm up the car and cool down if it gets to hot or at the end of the session.

It is included in some insurance policies because technically its HPDE (high performance drivers education), you would have to check with you policy.

Track insurance is not included by any of the major carriers except in North Carolina where they have a state law prohibiting insurance companies from denying coverage for HPDE. Anywhere else you are NOT covered and some companies will drop you if you even inquire about track day coverage. AMHIK.

Lockton sells track day insurance. I have used it every time. It's not cheap and the deductible is not small, but it surely is better than wadding your car and having a payment for a metal ball.
