Yes, Jack K.  has my DVR which has at least 3 hours of Shenandoah track footage.  You could ask him to send you a file of a lap or two.  Option 2 is I can burn a dvd when I get the DVR back.

Hey Bob,

When you get a hold of it, could you please post a few laps here?  We have some great footage of Larry at Summit Point, we need this, the Glen, Jefferson (each direction), and both tracks at Pocono to have a complete set

I forgot that my download site has some laps of Shenandoah from last year.  This is a short clip.  Notice at the end what happens if you get out of position on the off camber left turn just past the start/finish area.  Drive in front in the GT3 overcooks the turn and gets way wide forcing me to stomp on the brakes.  hock:,  no sound, if there was, I would have edited that part out.

Bob,

Expected to see you today @ Super Tech. I had your DVR to give back to you!

Jack, thought I would see at the meeting....... No big deal.  Working at home getting ready for VIR and did not have time.  I found a clip on my video site.  If you want, we can use that for posting track vids you want for the forum in advance.  I can raise my storage to 2gigs.  I have a bunch of new parts to start  putting on the car, but need to rub dirt on them so they look like the ones I am replacing.

Here's a couple of good laps with Bob taking the video and with me in the car in front.  I chose these laps to use in the classroom because you can see the line from two vantange points.  Both as I enter the corner, and as Bob takes the corner.

Notice there are markings painted on the track surface, a series of "x"s that indicate where your car should be in at critical points in the corners.  These are really hard to see as this video snippet is so small, but if you pause the video in the right spot, you can see what I'm talking about.

One caveat to this video.  DO NOT TAKE THE CAROUSEL AS HIGH AS I DO!  The carousel is very bumpy and I was bottoming out if I took it where you are supposed to.  I tried different lines and found this higher line wasn't as bumpy.  However, I paid the price for this later in the event as I popped out.

Take care,
Jack
