Hi guys. :)

Here's the in-car video:

20141004 VIR HPDE1 BMW X5 4.6iS S3 In-car

My thoughts on the session are in the video description. Was the first time ever on Full Course and first time HPDE with 5400 lbs of X5 and occupants. Had fun, just need to get out and memorize the road some more. It was a great weekend with friends AND getting to meet other awesome people from Xoutpost. :)

Edit: outside videos and pics to come...

Edit 2: Here's a short panning clip of Turn 14-17 (Thanks santib!)

Looked great out there! That track looks like a lot if fun with all those high speed corners. What tires are on there? They are 315 all the way around right?

Thanks Josh. :) They are Bridgestone Dueler HP Sport Non-runflat. Yes, 315 all the way around on two sets of rear oem 87's.
