My day at the track!

Hey all!

So here's the skinny. Hooked up with some Corolla buddies of mine on Saturday and we all decided to hit the track on Sunday morning. We go out there and pay our 60 bucks and get 40 minutes worth of track time. I give my camera to one of the guys who came to watch and he took some videos of me on the last run, which got cut short cause the R-34 blew an intake pipe off and had to get towed off the track.

The first round I was running on my shitty tires and the best time I pulled was a 54 second lap. For the second run I borrowed a friends wheels and tires (Watanbe's with Potenzas on them) and the grip was insane. Fastest time the second round was a 52 second lap. I was getting confident and braking harder and later. Then we all came into the pits cause of the GT-R and I parked with the e-brake on and the motor running to cool it down. I get back in the car and the brake pedal goes to the floor. Brakes were completely toast, rear pads gone and fluid (Im guessing) boiled.

All in all an awesome day! Anyways, enough of my jibber jabber, on to the pics!

I'm the white hatch in the middle.


The pits.


Two mint rollas in the parking lot.


Putting a little something special on. :)


New hotness!


Damn those wheels look good!

My personal favorite.


And finally a short video of me on the track. The video is kind of boring but the background music sure is good! Also, at the end you can see the blue GT-R at the side of the track with an engine that wont stay running.



Cheers guys!
David
