Sounds like an awesome experience. That is a tough turn, but a great save. Better then SEX??? Yes, a difficult choice, unless you are in the car, on the track. Then it is no choice at all. Pick the car and the track!!! I will be attending the Master's Plus course in September and cannot wait to sign up for the Cup Car course.

I just bought a 2011 GT-3 and had it on the track once...Lime Rock Park. Will be there again 2 days this coming week...June 1st & 2nd. Anyone else there with a GT-3? The car feels incredible on the track.

What an amazing oppurtunity! I am very jealous!

I attended the Performance PSDS program a couple of years ago and it is a fantastic school. I would strongly recommend it to any newbie to the track. But to be honest, I've read about the the Cup Experience and had doubts. How much time in the Cup? Lead follow? Ability to adjust tire pressures? Class size? # of Cup Cars? I had many concerns but after speaking with FTS this sounds like an amazing program. I am seriously considering it now.

It looks like you're turning in a bit early...I assume because of the quicker response and slick tires. True? Did you have to adjust turn in because of the quicker response? I also noticed you opened the wheel quickly a few times....a sign of how immediate the throttle response was? Man that looks like fun!:cool:

Wow....that "off the brake" looked like it prevented an impact! :whistle:

You are pretty much dead on, very perceptive. I cannot say I was doing anything consciously, quite the contrary, with the exception of trying to throttle steer.

I think what happened, after I watched the video few times, is I turned in early for some reason, got on throttle a little earlier too and the front tires cut too short and got on the curb. The combination just snapped the rear.

BTW minor item, it is turn 15, not 14. I don't think that it was an early turn or that was the cause of the spin.

I think you held the steering position too long, not opening up the wheel, and then hit the gas with the wheels pointing to the inside, compounding the oversteer.

You lucky bastard!

PSDS is great! Been there a few times...

Interesting the hand signal that given on the apex by your
co-driver, I assume that was Cass.

What did he have to say in your debrief?

BTW where are your gloves?
