Talking 1-11-09 Streets of Willow Springs Open Track

Hey all! Well, I managed to get back out to the Streets of Willow Springs on Sunday, and I was also able to set a new personal best!

Here are some videos:

This integra gave quite a few drivers problems while attempting to communicate on the track. Normally point-bys are given by the slower driver (the integra in this case) and they will let off to allow a pass. Apparently he wanted me to pass, but he didn't let off the throttle and stayed right on my rear bumper... which explains what happens in the video. I got him back though later in the day


My personal best lap:


Thanks for watching!

Glad you had a good time. I have spent alot of time up at willow springs. You certainly do not want to get off the track up there.

that darn rear view mirror, only look at it once and "forget-a-bout-it" If they are on your ass like that they will figure out how to get by . The responsibility of the pass is usually on the passer. You were defiantly faster than that guy just got caught looking to the rearview to much and missed braking and turn in. Looks good chris
