Ok, if they let me take a passenger, I will get him/her to take a sneaky video using their phone.Vj4sothername wrote: ↑Tue Nov 17, 2020 7:08 pmVideos please!Ranjan wrote:Just booked this while sitting in a boring meeting:

Unfortunately, the dash does not have any flat surfaces to put a suction pad on except just above the glove box and that is set too low to give a decent view.

Re: Track night 2020 - Auto Club Speedway November21st
About to set off for track day tomorrow.
Weather is a balmy 27 degrees and sunny tomorrow, for the track day
Decided not to use original car as tempting fate so will use something faster

Please do let us know how you find it. Hope you have fun!
I really miss California. In a normal year I'd be out there now. Can't wait for them to let me back into the country.

Re: Track night 2020 - Auto Club Speedway November21st
I hope I do not regret doing this........but I am going to post a picture.
Some background; my staff really gave me hell for posting here the car I was going to use for the track day and they were right to do so.
Also, Nigel's idea of posting pictures from dealers stuck a cord.......
So best of both worlds; I have borrowed a car from a dealer on the pretext of testing it before I buy and am going to take that on track.
I have had my eye on this before so the dealer knows he might get a sale, hence the 2 day loan.
I will post more from the track tomorrow and take some video.
