I ran a 2:12:xx in the next session when I got a traffic free lap in, but unfortunately no video. Honestly I thought I should be running a faster time anyway. Any tips for glaring mistakes I made during this lap are appreciated.

Awesome driving man, wish I was in your run group and was able to get some clean laps before mine blew up. Your lines in most places look a lot better than mine, which makes sense considering it was my first time at this track. I'll have my only video up tonight.

@reynaldo77 Thanks, I was pretty happy with my improvement. Saturday was my first day at the track, but I watched quite a few instructional videos and the wet track was a great way to learn.

Good job man! That looks fun.

<-- blue acura rsx-s here, #43

great driving! i recall some sessions where we played tag...

lots of traffic and varying skill levels in our group led to some interesting moments. the burgundy turbo vette was being driven way too slow, imho.

check out my videos, i have one up from that day as well and a link to my pics.

catch you next track day, and hopefully my 944 turbo project is done... :)
