Hi Mike,
Got the driving bug, huh? Me too, hope to see you out there
I have spent much time pouring over track video as well, and am always on the lookout for interesting stuff There are some around but the quality is all over the place: good driving lines but too bright/dark/shaky, nice video but driver skills lacking, too much traffic, etc...
I also think that having a page on the forum for links to video will be beneficial Haven't been over to the Pelican Forum site, though I prowl Rennlist religiously, and find them to be a great source of all things Porsche, for better or worse Ideally, what I imagine is creating our own (RTR) video, possibly a lap at 6/10ths with verbal cues followed by a hot lap or 2, driven by one of our fabulous instructors It could be done over the course of the year as we make our way through the schedule, or perhaps as instructors attend events at the tracks we frequent, they can capture a few laps to post. Potentially it might be useful in the classroom, as well...
Links to the venues, track maps, paddock layout for newbies, and whatever else might be pertinent could be included as well. Here's a link with a lot of video and track info:
