The last portion of the race kinda sucked since you didn't have anyone to play with and were nursing. Finishing is better than getting towed.
The back straight is a little rough.
Nice vid, I would have liked to have seen a portion of the steering wheel though.
The white Mustang is proof that you don't need the latest and greatest to be fast. It's an old Fox body Mustang driven by Jay Andrew, he's been piloting that thing to championships for many years. The blue Mustang was driven by Dean Martin, you may know him from Rehegan Racing, last year's Koni Challenge championship team.
In general we're faster than those guys, but Andrew's overall fast lap was quite impressive, more than 1/2 a second quicker than my fast lap yesterday.
It's funny, I never notice how rough certain tracks are until I look at the video. I do need a better camera, I'm grateful to my buddy for loaning me his, but the fish-eye view really sucks. The race was much more exciting that the video shows
