Sportscar driving basics
Tuesday, June 30, 2009
Went to a Speedventures track event at California Speedway with my good friend Danny, it has almost become a traditional event, celebrating 3rd year in a row this summer just kicking back at track, lapping and making some videos.
This year I made a quick instruction video for all track fanatics; sportscar driving basics for having more fun on the track.
Went out to Calabasas to check out an informal car show, "Supercar Sunday", that was started around sportscar people making stopovers during Sunday cruises at a nice little coffee shop. A pretty good turnout, cars coming and going. Some rare stuff as well, like some oldschool Vector supercars, Ultima GTR. Show up at 9 to not miss anything.
