I did my track day at Thompson's at their first event. I signed up the night before, went to the track signed in and then rushed over to Flatout and picked up the car.

I pulled in and unloaded the car - the tech walked over slapped a sticker on it and out I went. Got a whopping 4-5 laps in and an oil leak ended my day. It was the first track day of the 2016 season, one that was a disappointment from start to finish as far as the race car was concerned.

Oof!! The high price that comes with owning an exotic car without adequate insurance. I'm siding with the repair shop here

Time to mount the Stoptechs, change the fluids, check the whole car over and try to re learn the GOPRO!

That has to be the toughest corner, but that said, even the other corners seemed hard to judge for me based on the video. And did you see that DP blow by him as though he was sitting still

Hello A2!
m
Here are are some short videos of my track day with NASA at Sebring. HPDE2. The slide/oversteer on video #3 was captured by a fellow s2000 owner. I have more work to do on smoothness of heel/toe, lines, etc. The first day was rain, rain, rain, so the below was for the 2nd day. I will post more soon. Any feedback from anyone here is welcomed.
