Default CCCPR Salinas Intl. Raceway

I had a great time at the track on Saturday. I passed 2 Corvettes, 3 Subys, various other cars (don't have it all on camera .... GoPro didn't record the first two sessions) The Advan's did pretty good. The stick like R Compound when cold. Hot, they get slick, but always predictable. I got stuck behind a Porsche the first session and he never gave me a point by so when I caught him in the third session I knew what to expect. He turned out to be a great guy, he just plays by his own rules. He was blue flagged again and again but never pointed anyone by. No one passed me in any of the sessions which was a shock. I passed a ZR-1 but he obviously had a problem. You'll see him point me by then enter the pits where he caught fire and lost his car. 1000 miles. I have my opinion on what happened but I want to see if I can get the facts first. The video is complete and unedited so you can see how I messed up the hairpin again and again. I've got to fix that. Having used Pilot Sport Cups is my excuse and I'm sticking with it. It's 21 minutes long but I think it's worth the time to watch it.
