Track Day at Infineon Raceway

I had an opportunity to take the day off of work and spend it at Infineon Raceway. We had very nice weather (mid 70s), lots of cars, and a great time on the track. Infineon can get your blood pressure up a little higher than some of the other tracks, but it feels quite rewarding when you're able to nail a series of turns in sequence. Can't quite describe the feeling.

In addition to the Porsches from the PCA group, there were quite a few Vipers as well. There's no better way to enjoy what your car can do!











And here are some photos from the paddock area:

Strange that Farmer's Insurance would advertise at a race track.

Car is looking great and hat is a FUN track! Sweet looking nose-ring, capture some good video with that? Any posting online yet? What were you getting for times and what tires were you running?

Off to Laguna next week along with Vid997- should be a blast!
