    Since we haven't had much track discussion lately

    Thought we needed some on-track video. This is from one of my staff (red Camaro) from a track day we hosted last Monday and Tuesday. The weather on Monday was nasty but did dry up some on Tuesday. I had to work but would have normally taken the 818 out for a session or two but decided to leave the car at home since I only have slicks and just finished cleaning and nut and bolt from the last time I had the car out. Yes I was being lazy.

    Looks like fun!

    Were those Corvettes doing demo rides or something? Pretty funny commentary too; fun to watch.

    Thanks for posting!

    LOL no we host 3 track days 2 here at NCM and 1 at VIR. They are open to all makes and models but we get a LOT of Corvettes due to our relationship with the National Corvette Museum across the road.
    Danny the owner of the Camaro and video editor is quite a character.

    Thanks for posting the vid Mitch. Making me have track withdrawals. It's been so long. Doubt I'll make it to the track before fall. Can't wait.

    Bob looking forward to seeing you guys.
    You left out the lazy spin at the top of the sinkhole. LOL I have spun my car there 3 times, with the chassis tuning the car is not so knife edged.

    I have spun twice at the "deception corner". I don't believe Michael has a spin at NCM.
    I found the lazy spin. It's a around 2 min mark of this video.

    Well maybe it wasn't a spin just a bit of snap oversteer.
