Default In-car from VIR Grand East w/ Mazdadrivers

I just got back from a great weekend at VIR with Mazdadrivers and I've had the chance to upload some in-car video from one of yesterday's sessions. As always, the Grand East layout was a lot of fun, and I was thrilled with the reliability of the car. You will notice a couple times the car hits fuel cut coming down the pit straight...it only did it twice all weekend and I'm looking into why. My best guess is fuel starvation coming out of hogpen. Anyway, I'll upload more sessions when I get a chance.

Thanks, yes the car is on Toyo R888s. I love them, definitely an improvement over the already nice RA1.

I can't plan that far ahead I do hope to get down there at least one more time this season.

To everyone else, thanks for the compliments. I have to give a lot of credit to the car, it seems like everything with my setup really came together and it felt perfect all weekend. I've also been trying to get as much seat time as possible, which has helped me make a lot of progress as a driver. I still have a lot to learn though

someday, dan...someday! I will be posting vids like that. It must be pretty lonely driving by yourself on the second vid since it looked like you demolished the competition.

see me on the go-kart track

I was in green but I was sharing my car with a buddy who was in blue. I was parked with a bunch of cars including a black evo and black STi both with Synaptic 3 decals. If I knew you were there I would have introduced myself. Do you usually attend the Mazda Drivers events at VIR?
