Default Track Vids- Thunderhill - GT3 Train

Fun times at Golden Gate Region PCA TT and DE this past weekend. Here is a lap with me, Armando and Lars and then a solo lap. It was a fast crowd in red group and the GT3's surely offer plenty of entertainment for the spectators.

Not sure of final results but when I left on Sunday Armando had best time of the day with a 2:02.3! Woo-hoo!

No issues and I could not be happier with how my car is performing.

Here is a (terrible) pic of Lar exercising fine style in shuttling slicks from paddock to paddock via skateboard.

I have the racekeeper set up too. Just curious where you have your microphone? i get the same wind noise, but worse, and mine is up by the rear view mirror. I am looking to relocate it maybe down by the dash as I am looking to pick up more engine purrrrr than wind noise.

Good point! I keep forgetting to place the dead squirrel over the mic. I have tried everywhere and currently have it shoved up behind the PCM!

I will attach squirrel and see how that affects the noise.

I like the fuzzy dice but they keep getting in the way for me to look thru a turn.

I love the vids and pictures, they are awesome. While watching the vids, I kept yelling "gas, gas, gas..." Its easy to say when you are sitting on a couch and not in front of the steering wheel

Shhh... don't tell anyone. I had to keep adding air to one tire and the air hose was down near the track entrance and I'm lazy.
