Re: track day pictures
I'll start out with this video of a fast pass from session 1 on Sunday.
Hope to get some pictures up before we have to leave.

Re: track day pictures
i'll post a picture the pro's pick of me passing the white 911. in one pic i'm about 18 inches away (side to side) from the 911 and im clearly looking at my instructor. probably not the smartest thing to do!! but at least i was comfortable. my last instructor, karen, said your car stops like a freight train jody. so i guess the brake upgrade really worked. sorry if my crazy screaming family scared your wife, us mexicans think everything is a fiesta.

At least if you crashed, you had a Dr. in your passenger seat.

Re: track day pictures
Yeah, I was lucky to have Dr. Karen ride with me on the second session on Sunday, so I got some good technique pointers as well as some nice clapping from her side when I did it right.
Gotta love positive reinforcement!
My wife thought your family was wonderful Mike... no sweat. Besides she's from an Italian family... they get loud a lot too, so no permanent damage.
I just got in and will be looking through the various sessions for 'highlights' to build a video with... Stay tuned!
Edit: x'ed, if you can I'd like a full sized version of that first 'Four Amigos' picture you posted. Somehow my wife cropped off Derek's car a bit.

Re: track day pictures
Thanks for the kind responses.
I don't know about crystal clear Andrew, it's a lot worse after compression, but at least most of the detail is still visible. Unlike YouTube where it would be compressed to large moving blobs...
I would love to post the nearly uncompressed DV... but it would probably blow my bandwidth limit for the month.
I'm still trying to compile a 'highlight' reel from all this... two hours of video to chug through... I'll keep you guys in the loop.

Re: track day pictures
Andrew,
Here's the video at full resolution and at the same compression rate as I captured it. Shorter clip though. Just the spinout and no credits.
Enjoy!
