Sebring Sept 17 Pic & Vids


Team Infiniti

Recommended Posts

Confirmed, a rare event, the Craigslist GoPro 3 has behaved and continuously recorded every moment... only one problem... limited patience and time to review, if someone saw us nearby when "it" happened, give me a rough time of day.

 

Undermentioned reason the 935 has contact & spins, me braking and going wide deciding where to hide, KSR choptop vid may help.

 

To the Mark/66, if you could find my 70 mph drift mistake through t1 it would be interesting to see from behind. (Stint 4?)

^ Yep, will do !    Might be week or so, Brian ( our vid wiz ) left Sebring heading north to run Indy for the week.   So it'll be after he gets back from there. 

 

Have to say I thought it was going to come all the way around on you, but you caught it !     Fun racing both day and night out there with you !

Yeah, bit jealous myself.   But Chump's where it at for track time compared to the SCCA.   

 

 

18 min. each day for qualifying for 4 days and a 40. min race.  That's why I left scca years ago.  I know a guy that tells me he has north of $10,000 to run this entire week and that is if nothing breaks and he gets his entire track time,  AND his chances are really slim to finish in the top 20 of his class !

Close split pass, fair or foul?

 

 

Certainly no foul there , just a bit risky to me, only because you have to trust two people to do what you want them to at the same time.   If someone has a brain fart right then there's some bent cars and several pages of forum speculation on who's at fault ?

You know how some say the camera adds 10lbs? I believe the gopro added a few inches of clearance, it felt tight but safe and have zero feelings of guilt, not to mention, I really wanted the pass early of the next bend.  This question was more gauging other peoples perception,  glad to see we are all on the same page. Everyone was stable and predictable, not only there but the entire field.

uh, ok    think it was a three wide thing,  where a three wide thing should have been a two wide thing

Would it be possible to shift your camera to the left by 1-2 feet for next race?

We were ok with it, no issue here.  I tried to leave you some room, just wasn't sure what the BMW was going to do with it.

 

And Bill, you might have passed us a bunch of times, but hundreds of times?  I wouldn't go that far...

JM RACING in the #343 miata retired from the race around 9:30PM. As we were getting ready to set up our last two stints we had a dead battery. We got a new one in and lost power again to find the alternator stopped working. We had some little problems as well as a spin by me in turn 17 that put us on our spare tires. Still had a great time and this was on of our drivers last race with us. Thanks for providing that coolsuit system under the tower!! That was awesome! Can't wait for the next race!

Great day for us in the #229 car. Car ran flawlessly and we stayed in our usual mid pack place and finished 28th overall and 3rd in EC class. If not for the black flag for "leaking gas" we would have finished 25 or so. the leak was water dripping from the cool suit box sitting in our trunk. When we fill it up with ice, the water pours into the spare tire well and drains thru holes drilled in it. I guess I need to drill more holes, so it will drain faster.  Anyway, if you saw something leaking from the back of our car it was water. Good, solid driving, I thought especially during those crazy restarts!!! Congrats to Kevin and those guys, they had us all covered. Also nice job to the Cone Crushers and great to see the InFiniti have a good race. I was thinking of Jake every time that car zoomed by me!!! He was a great guy.
