[VIC] DriverDynamics Sandown Driver education day (12th June - day after Qbday)

Back to where I started! It is a power drag strip and plenty of road for you to fang all the way to 190kmh. Some get more!

Thumbs up Photos from the day

It was a wet day today. Started with rain but it the sun did shine and dried the track up. The rain came again mid afternoon but we mainly stayed on the black stuff, sometimes edged over onto the ripply blue and white stuff, occassionally the green stuff and maybe even the silver stuff. The last session was interesting, as we entertained each other with bitumen ballet (or drifting) and off-road driving.

As usual, Kevin and his crew were very good in arranging this day.
Thanks Kev and crew.

Nice Kah! Yes, it was wet! I started to refer to the day as Driver Dynamics's Disney on Ice!

Anyway here is one video of the wet session http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bfkvcV6WKo. I was running 1:40's failry consistantly with a 1:36 thrown in for good measure.

Will do the dry session tonight where I ran a lot of 1:33's and 1:34's with a few1:32's thrown in.
