Thanks for the comments guys. There are 3 different drivers shown...me being the last one with the camera looking down on the hood, which ended up being my quickest run of the day. The other two had the camera mounted on their worst runs. The first driver shown ended up with a great run setting FTD for non Corvettes (this was a Corvette Club event).

Great video, definitely need to work on the trailbraking though. It looks like you are heavy on the brakes into the corners and immediately hard on the throttle...which is probably what's causing you to go sideways on every exit. With the S2k's tendency towards unpredictable snap oversteer (worse than my Mustang used to be) you've got to brake earlier than you'd think. Great vid though, looks like a fun course!

Not bad. You need to learn to be a little smoother, though. Learn how to trail brake into corners instead of diving into them. You can carry more speed thru the corner and it will dramatically reduce your lap times. Hit the apexes a little tighter and squeeze on the throttle more. You're losing too much time getting sideways on the corner exit. I would also work on heel-toe downshifts. I'm guessing on that track you could drop your best time by a little over .5 second. Unless, of course, you're just there to have fun. In that case I say let it rip and bring it sideways thru every corner. Thanks for the video. Good stuff.
