Saw lots of people with real cameras out there Sunday morning, anyone know of any other sites with photos?

External photos can be very helpful in tuning - to see if wheels are locked up, how camber looks, tires in air, etc.

Thanks!

I bet if that car had been a little less loose, you could have been quite a bit quicker.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw that. LOL. Not sure if its chassis flex, or simply the door seals giving in under the lateral weight. If I remember right, the door van be pushed in like that just sitting still.

Lots of Video to go through.

One of my better right side runs, 51.8, (my best was an un-recorded re-run). Includes a peek-a-boo at the other start lane.
BTW, my 0.502 vs Tom's 0.499.

When my back was turned some desperate individual jumped in to the Prius C and took some runs at the El Toro Tire Rack SCCA ProSolo. Thus far we have not identified the suspect, but our crack team is working to track him down. Our biggest clue to who this may be comes at 1:13 in the video, he seems to have a ritual for psyching himself up before a run, or it may just be a nervous tic.

I have a few clues for your crack team of investigators Jason,

...there was blue tape on the car that appear to represent the letters "M" and "A", but not necessarily in that order.

...his car has one motor to this cars three motors
...his cars motor is smaller than one of this cars motors
...his cars motor has a very high RPM, but still slower than one of this cars motors max RPM

I wonder how his times compared... this car sounds faster in some aspects on paper }:)


On a different note, I like his steering wheel control at 3:20 in the camera shot through the window! :thumbup:

It's a bit late, but I'll post it anyway. These were from Saturday PM because my cameras didn't record the quickest runs from Sunday.
