For those interested in VIR Track Time

Post by MichaelXi »

Please see this thread from focaljet.com..... Be sure to read the entire thread, especially about 11-15 posts down....

The poster, TeamDFL, is a friend of mine from the Raleigh area. He's got 10+ years of Track Experience, and is also an Instructor.
If you want to attend, Please let me know, and I'll hook you up such that you might receive a little extra Attention/Instruction.
Once again, I'll Post the Video of a Full Lap...

Here's another video, showing some Focus running. It's edited to skip some segments, particularly some of the long straights, but enjoy.
The Yellow Focus is Rich, aka teamDFL. When the Camera car closes on him, he was waiting for him, so he could follow his lines to learn...
Once again, Enjoy...

It's coolest when they get stuck behind a Fast Porsche, which is stuck behind a Slow Porsche.... When they get the Wave-By, watch the Faster Porsche LEAVE...... THEN, Watch the Focus Catch up..... :twisted: 8)
:D
Focus on FASTER!!!!

Yes, I do....
I just WISH I could afford to go to those sorts of events with more frequency.
I did well to afford the Gas, Room, and entry for this time. To go again, I'd need the same, PLUS another set of front rotors and pads...
It'll be a bit before I get to do it again myself.... But I'll be glad to hook anyone up for the February event if they're interested.
:)
Focus on FASTER!!!!
