Track Vids!!

Just a couple of Buttonwillow vids I took this past NASA season. First one has an interesting 350Z off.

Second one includes a close call with a NASCAR truck. I tried to leave him extra room to make the pass first...

Feedback is welcome.

Edit: Here's another longer video. Has me drooling to get back to the track. I'm hoping to run about 6-7 NASA events next season and test for Time Trial/license.

Nice footwork!

NASCAR truck didn't look back before passing and he probably didn't expect you to pass just after tracking out of the turn (though you clearly were allowed to). Those conga lines get hairy. Best to pit and get waved on to a clear track.

Thanks. Yeah, they're giddy scary. I'm trying to get more and more comfortable in a pack but some of that slow stuff just gets frustrating. The third vid is probably the most fun I've had on a track because of all the traffic stuff.
