Track Days

[eman1]

Hey Guys,

Just finished another track day at Wakefield park and have been trying out the new go pro and mic.

Anyone else on here do much track days or such? There was a few VF's there on Sat. Interested to see if many on the forums have any other events they do also.

Best in HD with sound up!

What prep has the car had, mech, handling?

DBA 3000 rotors.
FORZA FR6 pads
Braided brake lines
Penrite High temp brake fluid

Still on RE003 tyres where as most have semi slicks (This is the biggest issue at the moment as the street tyres overheat very quick.). Completely standard power though.

I thought you were going to take the chequered flag there for a moment!
So you drove there and home same tyres, cool. This is a good app for overlaying data and integrating phone, dashcam, and desktop logging:
TrackAddict Pro by RaceRender LLC

Amount of data channels are amazing:
View media item 490

Thanks will look into that app, Ive used a couple on my iPhone with a OBD2 unit but its complicated to get the data on the go pro footage.

Yep car is driven from Newcastle to Goulburn so needs to be fairly standard but doesn't seem to get in the way of having a good time on the track!

That app lets you control the go pro and sync OBD2 and other channels later. It facilitates desktop video production.

Great Video, looks like your tyres were handicapping you from lap two onwards, std exhaust ???

Yes standard exhaust, I record the sound with a mic on the back number plate which makes the vid sound better rather than wind noise.

Nice! I enjoyed that immensely.
What speed were you hitting at the end of the main straight?
Clearly that Monaro is not sporting the LS7?
