Anywho, a car I rented, 1984 VW Rabbit GT-I to do the school. Slow in the straights, fun as hell in the corners. I did ~1:27 laps (best was a 1:26.537 @ 83.2 MPH).
The back straight I had my foot planted in 4th the whole time. What’s redline MPH in 4th in a Rabbit?
Nothing too impressive, video never does it justice, but whatever. Gave me a shit eating grin.
I know they have auto cross events around me often, never knew they offered a driving school, thats pretty cool i’ll have to look into that, something to do this summer lol
4+6 7+9 My favorite part of the track right there
Have to watch the videos again now that I see the track layout but I think that back straight away looks pretty high speed
My favorite for the course has to be coming down the front straight at the top of fourth, a quick lift to settle the car then dive through 2.( The owner said it can be done flat out and I tried it once, but didn’t have the balls to do it again. ) And then blast through 3 and use up all the track on the far left, brake hard get into third gear and hard into 4-5-6.
You can see that my line was really screwed up on the second lap in 3 as I had a car on the left of me. On the third lap I couldn’t take 3 like I wanted because I was closing in fast on the red VW. But when done right you end up in the nasty looking asphualt on the left.
They were doing some logging/brush clearing in that area on Friday of the event. I do not know what it looks like now. But there are some very rural sections of the course.
lol
