Can you imagine? (trackday vid)

I don't know if I'd get on the track. I guess if you had a pretty quick beater then maybe. I think that the filming car is a Nissan GTR or something. Trackday was somewhere in Australia.

OMG, I couldn't stop laughing after the first lap. I am not a pro by any means but this guy really sucks. You can see that it is a common case of too much horsepower and not enough skill. He only passes/catches up to people on the straights and either trails or is as fast on the corners. He almost always takes the early apex and brakes super early. His steering is very rough and the suspension seems way over damped for the surface that he is on. I would not run with this guy.

that dude sucked... not a fluid motion in his body. I thought he had parkinsons or something.

but those other drivers weren't much better. I used those same tactics in Grand Turismo; straight through the s curves.... AWD= straight line
