PIR Chicane Challenge video thread

Here is some vid from the start of the G4 race. It seems to me that each time I race in the rain, it only starts to rain while on pre-grid...

Nice brand new glass windshield, and wiper. Jeez, did you have the seat heaters on too?

In all seriousness, nice driving in very slippery conditions.

Seriously nice drive there Batman.

Woohoo - nice work there! That looked like fun - sideways fun, but fun none the less.

Great video and driving!

This was my first area upgrade race and what a suprise when the rain started in pregrid!
My camera stopped right at the green flag, so I didn't get any video. Watching yours was great to see what you where doing. I hope to see more posted.

That's a funny sounding Honda.

Nice driving Mike!!! It was really hard to tell on PIR live that it was raining until I realized that windshield wipers were on. It was really cool to be able to watch the race from all the way over here. I hope that all the tracks will have live webcams in the not to distant future.

In car video from the novice race. Unfortunately, my batteries went dead during the pace laps after the red flag and I didnt get the last lap battle on film. Excuse the missed shift, I can't seem to find fourth sometimes so I just use second. Enjoy!

Very nice drive, Mike! Were you set up for the rain? What kind of tires were you on? Can you teach me all of your secrets?!

Great job stopping the moment the red came out...

 

[MikeA]

Also did you get hit in turn 1 during first full lap qualifying? Looked like an e30 love tap.

Here is the video from Chris Heinrich (sp?) who won ITA in his Miata.......Damnit.

hmmm...no rain set up. It started to rain on pre-grid, so everyone was on dry tires I believe. Tires were mid life Hoosier R6s. Secrets...keeping it on the black stuff is the trick.
As Randy pointed out, the new window, seat heat, navigation and air conditioning helped too:smile:

I think the PRO3 driver #378 is gonna want to watch this. Lots of time in front of the camera!

^^^Awesome video!!! It looked like you were having a blast with Steve and Jim nice driving.^^^^

 

[badsmini]

Wow! Great racing right there. Flag to flag!

 

[Steve Adams]

Yeah, probably the most-fun race I've ever had. Of course, this was the ONE TIME my camera didn't record...
