I only live an hour from Daytona but it is very rare that a group will actually rent it because it is so expensive. The PBOC rented it out and I'm Solo qualified with them so I was good to go. They didn't allow any novice drivers. I have always wanted to drive Daytone and it didn't disappoint. The high banking is a hoot and I have a whole new respect for the NASCAR boys that can go 3 wide at the speeds they are running.
It rained most of the day on Sunday and during my first session I went out in the dry but ran into a torential down pour coming down the back straight. I'm running V710's so no tread and heavy rain isn't good. I took NASCAR 3&4 at a greatly reduced speed on my way to pit in and discovered that all of the rain running off the roof goes directly into the drivers door panel in that situation.

CAMERA Hell ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah I had one this yr running when I went to make a pass on a GT3 porsche at VIR... That almost didnt go very well when he slammed the door on me and I almost punted him in the RIGHT rear wheel. I did have a nice talk after we got off the track (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tantrum2.gif) Somebody saying in the same sentance that I thought you made the pass and then saying I really did slam the door on you. DID not sit very well with me. Wadding up 150k worth of cars is not something I looked forward too!!!! But owner was gleaming running this car down in 1.5 laps being able to outbreak and out handle, just didnt have the straight line speed I still havent seen the vid. Keep up the video I need all I can get.. |
