Where's the pics of the Volvo?
Sorry, didn't take any of it. But he was in the B group and was keeping pace w/ a miata that I rode in driven by an instructor so by no means was he slow!

Sick, I love all Z cars... nice
I want a car I can lap in sometime...
My car has the same engine as yours at least, just detuned a little 😛
The thing is you can do it with any car. Especially if it's your first time you'll be concentrating more on driving the right line than trying to be fast. My first session I was trying to be fast and passed up quiet a few people. The second time around I took it slow, 3rd gear around the entire track, and I learned a lot more.

Hmmm - turn 10 is kind of a weird place to go off unless you were carrying waay to much speed as its not a very challenging turn. Did you guys run the bypass?
We did the full track, no by passes. I spun at the very last lap of the 1st session. It started raining so conditions changed in a span of 2 mins. And the only reason I spun was because I was downshifting and I missed my turn in point. Realizing this I over corrected to hit the apex and the track was very slippery at that point
😱 And to top it all off I lifted off the thottle because it surprised me. I should've just kept feathering the thottle so the car could maintain grip. But no harm was done so I'm kinda glad it happened.

mmm was that a elise on the course? cause it was very sexy.
Yeah there was a yellow and a grey one. The grey was modified (I'm guessing straight pipe) and was so loud that you could hear it from anywhere on the track when he was WOT. Sexy sexy car on the track.
