09 Red GT500 Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 I noticed that the track configuration used the "bus stop" chicane this year. We did not use it last year. Looks like a fun addition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torch40 Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 I noticed that the track configuration used the "bus stop" chicane this year. We did not use it last year. Looks like a fun addition! Yes it was fun and you could still take it at speed. Some with a little more speed than others. Right Mike? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mherman2 Posted April 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) I loved the Chicane addition because going 140 mph in the GT with hot brakes into that right hander had me on edge last year:) Plus those cones are just a guide, they were optional a few laps:) See cone below Edited April 3, 2013 by mherman2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roush GR40 Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Love the video...you running stock tires? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mherman2 Posted April 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Yes, Hankook V-12's. I have 18" inch race tires but didn't want to deal with getting them there for the weekend since we were driving the car from Palm Desert to Vegas.

ViperNC Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Looks like a fun track. Those tires are just "singin' away" in the corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NordicShelby Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Okay I have to catch up with work first. The video doesn't actually show the crash in detail but you can see dirt flying and then when we get around the corner you can see the Boss azzbackwards up against the wall and people waving me to stop.

mherman2 Posted April 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 Very cool! What was this filmed with? Just a GoPro on a suction cup on my bumper. Car has Kooks headers on it so it's loud and that thing picked up the sound nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmn444 Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 You read my mind, I was completely asking because of the sound quality! I hope my videos this summer come out sounding that good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoke with Andy and he said "Post it" he already put up pics on the Boss Forum, been very open about the whole thing.

ViperNC Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 Cool vid. That chicane caught you out a bit once you cleared the traffic. I always try to remember that sometimes to be fast you must slow down, but with clear track in front of you that is hard to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
