OK, apologies for the title, music etc - the guy who put this together likes to go over the top. We took 8 hours of go-pro, so he'll probably do more than just this one.
Hopefully the vid shows what an absolutely awesome track this is - 3.4 miles, 20 turns, tons of elevation change, very technical, its got everything you need to scare the poop out of you. Several of the drivers found this out to their cost - I think 3 or 4 cars were totalled over the three days. Even with loads of run-off, you can still hit stuff because the speeds are so high, typically I'd make 160+ on the back straight and 135 on the pit straight.
You get to see my GT briefly at one point (its the blue one - I must have been insane to let him drive it up there and track it!)) and you also get to see the facilities as I leave the course to fill up - this was a reguar event after each session, I was averaging one gallon per lap!
Next time I'll go full track-track (the course is so smooth I left the handling in sport all weekend)
