This weekend was my very first track day and it was SO much fun! I drove my bone stock NA (1.6) around the track at Blackwater (Moyock, NC) Amazingly the car held on great even with dry rotted tires and no suspension upgrades whatsoever. I am hooked, I can't wait to do it again!!!
In the video I'm posting, I had the track pretty much to myself because it was towards the end of the day and most of the people I came out to the track with went home. I was especially happy to see the drifters leave because they kept flinging rocks and mud all over the corners and I was having a hard time not losing grip in those spots! It was fun to watch them but not as much fun to be out there dueling with them -- Grip vs. Drift!
In the long straight, the gas pedal was literally to the floor and I couldn't get above 70mph! Many of the turns were off-camber, though you really can't tell in the video.
So here's the video:
