cygnusx1 Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Novice run group, this is my third track day ever, second time at Watkins Glen. Â This instructor was too chatty and made me nervous. Â Regardless, I had a great time and the car ran great. Â I had a ton more left in the car. Â As you can see by the boost gauge, I was pedaling a lot. Â The power was there when I needed to pass cars though. Â http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8O9Q-AZ5vik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLOZ UP Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 What's he saying when he throws his hands up in the air? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted December 13, 2010 Author Share Posted December 13, 2010 Can you tell he's Italian? Â He just kept telling me go left go left go left, followed by go right go right go right, and then go go go. Â I pretty much already knew all that. :0 Â He told me to flash my lights at the Ford Focus because the guy wasn't pointing me by. Â I think he was an OK instructor, but he didn't know my level of skill, and didn't take the time to let me show him what I could do, before he began giving me instructions that were annoying and basic.

cygnusx1 Posted December 15, 2010 Author Share Posted December 15, 2010 Yeah the camera angle make me look taller doesn't it? Â Â Â It was a quick and dirty direct bolt-on of a point and shoot camera onto the rear strut tower bar. Â Definitely need to fire that camera guy!

EMWHYR0HEN Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Man I need to upgrade on driving on some nicer race tracks. You guys have nice braking marker signs. We have tumble weeds and cracks in the road lol. Typically, how much is it to drive an event at Watkins Glen w/o instruction? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
