Well I quickly propped up this site so that I can start sharing some videos. Here's one of me at Buttonwillow on 1/16. This was the first time I had been to this track (let alone second time I've tracked my car). But I've done some karting over the years (HPV/Rotax).
Anyhow, I'd like to get some feedback from the junkies on items that I might be able to improve. In this session, I was working on setting my steering angles and trying to minimize steering input. Also, I forgot to mention in an earlier post that the Ultimate Pedals made a huge difference (as I expected they would). As I couldn't cleanly heel-toe w/out the extra flange on the gas pedal. In this case I was able to easily grab a lower gear and match RPMs.
Thanks.

If it was dry and you were doing this I would say to turn in closer and drift out more after apexing. But overall, in my opinion, it wasn't that bad.
I have driven Buttonwillow in my A4 Avant and S4 Avant. Only in nice hot weather.

Not familiar with Buttonwillow however...Looked a little hot through a few of the turns (good amount of push noticable through the tires). Other than that youre lookin good. How many DE's you have undre your belt?

I have other footage of passing cars but this time I wanted to get as open of a track as possible so I made sure I took my time getting to the staging lane. It was also kind of foggy in the morning so you couldn't see across the whole track and that's why it's hard to pickup other cars on other parts.
