I agree! Working hard to have mine ready for BG next year if we have another track day like last!

Very cool David! I love listening to (and watching) good ole' LT5 power!

Handheld camera? I'm REALLY surprised the PCA allowed that! Loose objects and handheld anything are a big no-no down here in Peachstate, will get you black flagged immediately.

The car sounds fantastic and I'm glad you had a great time, track days are addictive. Only a matter of time before you take it up a notch and look into racing.

Granny shifting extremely early. Did you tell him your powerband is between 5500 and 7000 RPM?

It was fun to watch, Next time you do one of these let me know I will send you one of my Gamin's to Record.

Difference with this event.

We had instructors. Flag persons. And classrom time

Just surprises me they allowed it. If there's an incident, that phone becomes a dangerous projectile. If you go back, definitely pick up a GoPro and a suction mount, works so much better.

I have got to get an exhaust on my car, just too damn quiet. Yours sounds fantastic.

I agree--I use a Go Pro mounted with an adhesive mount in the center of an old style harness bar (for old folks who remember him--made by Terry Farber). In fact that is all I use my bar for other than to carry a fire extinguisher. It only attaches to the seat belt mounting bolts so probably not really good enough for belts. And as you probably know I solve the exhaust sound issue with cutouts--listen to my NCM track video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBwK...layer_embedded -- it also sounds pretty good when open, but quiet when I want it so. --Bob
