First time on track...
 
but I wasn't racing :mdrmed:. I went to a BMW club racing day at Heartland Park and while I was there they announced a parade lap for anyone who wanted to go on the track. It cost $10 and the money was donated to a breast cancer fund. Anyway, I went out on the road course for the very first time ever. I've auto-x but of course tracking is 10x better. The short vid is part of my 1st lap and 2nd. Never redlined, just went to 7k (also speed limit was 60 but I took her to 90 once on the straight). On laps 4 and 5 (lap 3 had very slow cars that turned off the track before lap 4 started) I got much more aggressive and took better lines. My friend was sick so recording the vid didn't make him feel better so you won't see any other cars or laps 3-5.

Warning- Boring vid, bad sound quality (wind noise), bad driving lines, but mucho fun for the driver :rock:
