My second track day......video inside

First of all, thanks to MikenOH and others for pointing me to RaceChrono and the whole gps data logging bit. It's incorporated in the video below.

I also tried to mount my camera to show my steering inputs and shifting but my camera mount was worthless in the necessary position. I ended up mounting it on the rear view mirror again.

As mentioned in another post, I got nauseous after riding as a passenger in my instructor's M3. It took me awhile to recuperate and my track times steadily improved. I'm a little bummed that my best lap time only equaled my best lap time on my first track day in June. Having said that, it was warm out and I ran with both windows open whereas they were closed in June.

I made many mistakes in this session. Namely......I braked too hard, too soon, and for too long and lost a lot of momentum. I also turned in too soon at several places and the rear either broke lose or I had to let off the gas and correct my lines. There are a few other things that I'll do different next time but for the sake of brevity I'll stop here.

Feel free to provide input. Thanks.
