Very Nice.

Glad you got the agricultural repositioning segments. There is a reason that Bernie E. hasn't invited us to drive in F1.

Great video. How did the Ariel Atom do compared to the GTs? Is it one of the supercharged cars or the original? I hear they are a hoot to drive.

Now I know where the GT500 and the Cup Car got the idea for "slingshot engage" they were pulling all week. :lol

That spin was executed beautifully!

The Aerial is Ben's. BerkhertB. He would have made the go carts fast. He was as quick as anyone except, MAYBE, the true race guys. That is a 2007 and he still has the street tires on it. He was skating around the track as if he was on ice but passed me in the GT 500 like I was setting still. I have an entire session, untill he passed me of him "Under" my rear bumper as we were playing and videoing. He has the Heritage with the matching orange wheels. Absolutely beautiful car. Ask him about his handstand he performed on Bourbon Street. And yet that wasn't nearly the strangest thing our group did or said.

Great Video, Thugboat. Need to put on some knobby tires for all of the off road excursions :)

That's the first time I've had the atom on track with non R compound tires. It had NO grip on 5 year old street tires (but what would I expect). Still had a blast with you guys!

I'd like to thank all my fans who love my epic backwards exit from turn 1. The problem was that I'd just had Mark MacGowen take me round in my car so he could give me some tips, and I was therefore working hard on "carrying more speed into the apex". I spun twice in two consecutive sessions at that turn, but eventually got the hang of it and then quit while I was ahead!

Jeff, some people REALLY did agricultural repositioning and had to vacuum the real estate out their cars (no names mentioned to protect the innocent).

Sometimes, what doesn't kill you, just costs a lot of money... But Dave makes it look good! Great video, thanks for sharing.
