Here are some videos of my day at Grattan. I spun 3 times

CLICK HERE for my first spin
CLICK HERE for my second spin

CLICK HERE for prelude chase

I was there to have fun and beat on the car a little. I was very successful at both

and sorry for the poor quality but YouTube limits the file sizes to 100mb.
Damn Greg, you were drifting a lot, loved the second one!!! Great vids

Very very cool, you really need R compound huh!!!

Great videos, and I loved the stills of me and Sam off roadin.

I have yet to even look at my video's, plus I don't know if I can bring them into my mac without any software help, I'll see.

Lots of fun, at least with your video you can see the complexity of the track and the jump. I looked at the elise video of Phil and his spin too.
People are going to think thats all we do is spin.
Well maybe all of us but the master "Pat" and his mighty blue S.

I have only gotten dates from Greg for a meet, what about the rest of you guys?

I watched the Exige in-car, and am really curious on why he took those lines thru T3 and T10?? Instead of staying wide at turn-in, he went in on the inside.

Looks like a lot of loose nuts behind the wheel out there with all the spins!! Glad to see that no major mishap tho.

That track looks like a blast! I'll have to tag along as the novice next time. Great pics and videos too.

I think he was trying to scare the shite out of those in front of him as he dove to the inside. I think I heard a bit of his audio clip indicating just that as he was coming up on a VW.

At first that's what I thought too, but then I realized that even when he was open (or not anywhere close to the car in front), he still did the same thing.

I was at Grattan couple months ago. It was my first time there and WOW what a fun track.

Here's a vid of 1-lap around the track at 1:31.200.
It's a DC2R with ~180whp at 2550lbs.
You can take a look at the lines for your reference.

Yeah my fastest lap was 1:41 Pat kick some serious butt out there.
And I even tried to sabatage him by filling his car up with as much gas a possible

It sure is great having timers.
