Radar detector mount. The radar detector is usually there till halfway thru first gear when it becomes an airborne missle heading to the back seat! Never had a vehicle that would toss it out of the mount upon accelleration until now, I've since taken the mount down and bent the "tongue" slightly so it is no longer an easy slip fit. The unit should stay in place.

Those videos already have the optional 0.7 wide angle attachment on the camera lens.

Shifting... there is none. I mean, there is a 1st to second shift made as quickly as possible and the whole course is run in second gear, feathering the throttle, left foot braking and accellerating from a 2500 RPM roll out of the tight turns (all in 2nd gear.)

Lastly, it goes like this: I'm shifting to second now.... turning left, turning right missing cone, turning left, right left, out of slalom around cone *whew* turning right, left, right... feathering throttle around this sweeper, nailing it around this cone, right, left, right big F'in straight away hammer down.... jaam the brakes, GOD ya gotta love ABS!!!!!, tight turn left and mash the gas- watch those cones!!!- turn right and mash the gas ********** finish line. No cones !!!!! fast time of day (for me)

Hey, what do ya want?? I adjusted the rear view mirror so you can watch where I was!!!!

Last time we won DS for the first CENDIV event and we hope to do well again. Maybe I'll post pics of ours...

Congrats on the time. I miss the NeOhio and ASCC guys. They used to be a ton of fun...CENDIV is like an all star game and the competition is intense.

Where is your next event?

ATWILSON: How's this... I'm not the fuckin' wedding singer, I don't do fucking requests. Go get a fuckin' IMAX® camera and mount it in your car, that way you can see YOURSELF shifting and moving the big circular wheel back and forth. And while your're at it, get 2 cameras, that way you can make a split screen movie showing the driving AND the track. ... and I don't do SINGLE profanities when I do them.

opps I forgot to take my floor mats out last time

Ease up dude. That language isn't necessary. It's an awesome video though. I wish I had a road course to run. Nicely driven/filmed.
