Track debut (29k)Click for video

Today was a special day - it was the first time that my '92 SC has been out on the track.  It's been in the garage and has spent more than a year coming together to prepare for this day.  While it's still under construction in many areas, the car performed better than I ever expected.  An on top of that, nothing broke!

Click the HERE for some video of me in the '92 SC on the front straight (300k, requires Divx 5 codec -   info/download here).  Be sure to turn up your sound.
  

  
Josh's SL2 (32k)

  

  
Josh stopped by one of our Saturnfans chat sessions (info available on the Saturn Performance Club website), and the next thing we know, he shows up with his SL2 (shown at the left) at the track for the very first time.  Yet another who could not escape the influence!

  

  
Click the link below for some of my in-car video (thanks to Wally) of Josh doing a 180 in front of a Viper in turn 2.

Viper (22k)

 

  
A Dodge Viper had some difficulty slowing to exit the track and plowed sideways into a tire wall pretty hard.  The airbag went off and there was a significant amount of body damage to the driver's side.

  

  
Except for a few vehicles that had problems, most of the drivers had an enjoyable time and yet another great experience out on the track.
