Finally got the car out to an event to do a shakedown before I start
bringing it to track events. Wanted to make sure overheating was not
going to be an issue and it was the perfect day for a torture test.
Ambient temps were 110* in the high desert and with not turning the car
off between 5-6 runs each time and idling in staging the car never
overheated.
Toyo R888 tires were losing grip but they are getting towards the end of
their life cycle and pavement temps were off the charts also. Played
with the tire pressure settings but still didn’t seem to help much!
Should have setup my other gopro closer to the windshield for runs as it
was so bright out that the camera had a bit of trouble capturing the
interior and exterior exposure lighting. Oh well you can still make out
the just of it and see the fun we had. Got caught in a snap oversteer
situation on the second run that would not stop snapping back and forth
as I tried to miss the oncoming cones. Never lost it but me and my
buddy were dying laughing

Looks like fun, would have loved to see those first few runs from outside the car.

I totally agree! I will definitely be putting my other cameras on the car next go around. I really wasn’t expecting it to be as hilarious and fun as it was. Had a great time!

Was this with Speed Ventures? I went to their last event at Auto Club but couldn’t make it out this time.
