Hey, what happened to the on-board video?

the camera flew out the window and hit the wall at 150mph Just kidding, I didn't get to grab a camera before hand.

Dan, you are right... I was using more brakes and less down shifting than I needed to. I finished my brake pads that day... I just changed them last night and there was a little more than a credit card's thickness left. My tires wouldn't take a whole lot of lateral g's so I used my brakes heavy before the turns and powered out of them to keep pace. With some better tires and a little more balls and seat time I will be going a lot faster and using significantly less brakes... not to mention my car is heavier than yours by about 200lbs and this is relatively older fluid... I need to flush the fluid out soon and put in some of the racing fluid you were using... Where can I pick that up?

Tom
