Road course compilation from my 2014 GT at Watkins Glen, Limerock, Thompson

I have track fever and it's winter, so I pulled together a little compilation of a few clips from the past 2 seasons with my Mustang GT. Few cool cars I got past and a couple that took me

Nice............. I can't believe you let the silver German car and the white ZL car and the Shelby pass you. You really need a GOOD tune because your driver mod seems to be pretty good.

haha I haven't done a single power mod on my car - in due time

And that GT2 I let by at Watkins - he blew past me like I was standing still when I was WOT 4th gear. Something like 600hp+

I will say that in almost all the clips except the first two, I was on fairly hard street tires. Tossed on slicks at the end of the season and holy crap :thumbsup:

Next season will be very very fun

Nice, the guys giving you the shots of getting passed and passing were a nice add also.

Thanks, was trying to entertain myself and come up with something a little more interesting than just going lap after lap

I need to get set up with some video editing software...

Looks like a blast, nice video. Makes my auto crossing seem really small. I would love to get in on that racing.

Need more power I guess if I dropped $100k+ into my car it would probably keep up with that GT2 just fine though!

Need that big raise soon

Do it! Track days are extremely fun and easy to get involved with. Where are you located?

Nice compilation! It's really cool getting the passing/being passed shotd from the other cars. One of these years I'll get a GoPro. They are down to $199 these days, and I've been wanting one to film my track outings.

Was that white Camaro a 1LE? What was your impression of going up against one of those?

The white Camaro was a Z28. It stuck like glue especially compared with the tires I had on that day...

I had been thinking about splicing the passing and being passed clips for a while, I think it's pretty cool. Not that I have any editing skills. But gives me something to think about next season for some cooler videos!

You should go - there are a number of groups that go there.

Check out SCDA1.com for a July event that I will hopefully be instructing at. All the clubs are rolling their schedules out over the next month. Another group I highly recommend is Northeast Track Days - I believe they'll be at the Glen this season too.

Feel free to PM if you have any track related questions!
