First weekend of lapping

First days of lapping last weekend and I didn't remember how much I like it ! See in the video (link below) how good is our local track up here in the north... we enjoy it quite a lot when the winter finally is finish !

Nice driving, beautiful track. I like the track and sequence of turns. The other GT3 and Gallardo must have been pretty timid drivers because you didn't seem to have any trouble taking down the BMW.

Just curious, do you play the radio while driving on track? If not, why do you think we want to hear it?

That is an awesome track!

We have nothing like it nearby, just desert dusty tracks that are not that smooth.

Im jealous!.

The other drivers were probably not pushing hard as much (remember that it was in the first few sessions of our short season up here) altough I have to confess that I was on slicks (Pirelli D3) which gave me a large edge over them, especially at braking.

For the music (added to the soundtrack), I tend to find the videos less boring with it... which I know is not the preference of others who want to hear the engine only. I am curious to know what is the preference of others so next time I do it the way you like !

Here is another one done the next day while I was a little more warmed-up and where I had such a hard time following a brand new 600HP VIPER ACR. I was lucky that there was some traffic on the track to slow him down so I could catch him back but he was pulling away like crazy in the straights !

To be honest, I didn't have a good impression of the VIPER before that but now, if I would look at another car to change my GT3, it would probably be a VIPER ACR. The car is impressive and incredibly agile on a track for its weight. It comes track ready with no modifications required unless you want a roll cage and to drive on slicks.

Considering that he has 4 more cylinders than you, he didn't pull away from you by much. Never lost you.

I vote for the engine sound personally.

I used to live in NY state and met a lot of great people from Montreal.
