Congrats Kevin! Quite an accomplishment in a single event. 
Glad to meet the new faces and see the familiar ones. Clyde -- Apologies for being a little off when I ran into you at the Hampton Inn. I was very confused for a minute. Don't mind me...
Any way... Good times... good times... I will never plan another long night after a track event though. I ended up staying away for 24.5-25 hours straight on 4 hours sleep the night before. I still feel like Hell.
I got Part 1 of session 3 uploaded. There are some mistakes. You'll see 'em. Session 4 was damn near flawless, but I screwed up the GoPro.

That's one of the first things I noticed reviewing the video. (And my shoulders.) No wonder I am so sore.
I really would appreciate any/all serious advice.
Some of the line corrections were made in the 4th session. He was super impressed with the last one. Why couldn't I have recorded that??

Glad everybody had a good time. Unfortunately I was out of town visiting a friend that had returned stateside.
Aaron - I don't consider myself a track expert by any means. But watching your video you can see a clear difference in where your instructor is looking and where you're looking. He's way further ahead than you are. Take another look at your video and you'll see.

Nice driving Aaron! Your hand movements are nice & smooth. It was my first time at Shenandoah and needless to say I was all over the place. The RFID thing-of-a-bob got my fastest time at 1:40.5. Not sure how accurate it is. I'm uploading my videos now.

You need to stop tilting your head into the turn...

Awesome times! My best was a 1:44.3. No one would ever know it was your first time there. I am contemplating coming up to the NJMP event with Track Daze if I can get the car cooling better before then. Do you think your going to it?
