Alright guys, I know there is already a V-Day III thread with all the info and what not,but it seems like it will be too cluttered with everyone's experiences too! Show us the pics and videos!!!
Definately alot of dead space, but it's cool that she got all of the cars in the green group. All of my videos are 15-30 sec. videos... I didn't think to leave the camcorder on for a whole lap, and get all of the cars.
ccextra1976;1926765 we could be twins:highfive:..same tires too....[/QUOTE said:We got great taste. There were about 3 other V's in the green group with similar setup.
The state inspection in VA kept on making me take them off every year. Also, in the night time I can see better now also.
I think there is some info that I should provide on the instructors. I cannot say that all instructors are the best, but for the most of my limited track days I had really good ones, except for this V III day.I can't say that I've ever had a bad instructor anywhere. For the most part, it seems anyone who is actually willing to be an instructor is willing to be good at it.
Let me explain. 1st run in the white group. A car in front of me (black) spun out 360 with dirt all over in turn 6 and 7 and he stayed on the road course (my instructor was furious as to why that car did not pit in), 2nd a lap in the same run another car (red) spins completly off into the dirt before turn 1 and as we pass him (my instructors starts getting even more upset and makes me pull into the pad area) I sit there for good 10 minutes and no black flag as my instructor said there should be one and this is turning into the wild wild west. Now - My instructor had 4 straight days of teaching, and was not scheduled to instruct today, he ended up volunteering since my original instructors car broke down. Combined with him not ready for another day and these mishaps on the first run - There was not much for me to say after that. I think he was having an oFF day, but I still took so much valuable info.
I will always be in debt to the valuable lessons they provide and I accept their yelling, hand slapping, pointing and giving positive feedbacks, but if you are not in the mood for US DUMB ASS drivers then don't volunteer -
OK - Glad I got that out of my system.
Overall - the DAY was absolute perfection - I can't wait for the next event.
