Journey to the Track!!

Edited 03/30

I initially thought to post this in the tracking subforum, but it turned out to be more of a photo thread than a techniques/advice thread. Enjoy!

The climax:



….but back to where it all began.



Left home at 5am for the 160-mile trek to Harris Hill Raceway



Got stopped by a train along the way



Sunrise silhouette shot



Almost there!



Stopped to take a shot before the onslaught



Set up shop near the starting grid







Classroom session





Ready to go!!



Green to grid!!



Started at 32 PSI, up to 35 PSI after 1st session



Tire wear after 2 sessions





Tire wear after 3 sessions (Front)


Tire wear after 3 sessions (Rear)



Hip shot before gridding



Succesfully completed all my objectives for the day, and came out in one piece! (unlike the track mascot car)



The real damage




Thanks to Kurt Bradley for being a great flag station volunteer and for the action photos below. He did the work for Jalopnik for the McLaren 650S test drive in Austin.








3/28 OP

So much win!!

Edited photos to save necks.
