Here's my in car. i know i drove a bit crappy on day1. kinda physced myself out with my worn out tires, and was too much in a "make sure to race on day2" mode.
i felt like i was taking the "scared" line on friday. not setting up wide enough, not enough commitment to the corners/ notes, but as the rally went on i kept setting better and better times.

2nd rally with the "new to me" car setup, and a first time with zero toe in front, i actually did not notice a difference from my usual 1/32 toe out in front i usually use. think i ended up with -1.6 / -1.1 for camber, but the rear was rubbing a tiny bit on my dirt bags

I replaced my "down to the wear bar" tires after stage 4, but didn't get a chance to adjust the tire pressures until just before stage 5. Stage times don't really look like i changed tires, i think i just never quite found my groove Friday.

Saturday everything was clicking, and i felt like stage after stage i was in more and more control of my car.

Stage 10 i set the 2nd fastest time


There's no audio for most of it becuase either 1) Terra phone sucks balls for its stupid fucking audio out, (worked on a few test clips but never on stage)
or 2) my camera sucks balls and doesn't record audio line in on stage (but test clips are okay)
or 3) user error ... sad smiley i think there's a mic gain on the Back of the terra phone which MAYBE is for the audio line out only.. i dunno.

ANYONE RECORD OFF A TERROR PHONE??? please pm me, thanks

Nice video's guys! Wild Ass was a super cool stage (since I broke, I didn't get to really do much more than that) but that stage was probably the best I've ever driven. Which, compared to you guys, sucks, but I was pushing 9/10-10/10s the whole time, so if nothing else, I learned things and had a blast!

Does anyone know who it was that was taking the pics at the hairpin? I showboated on purpose there and wanna see how it turned out. smiling smiley

*By 'best I've ever driven', I mean my best job of driving, not the best stage in the universe, those would go to a few of the stages in Idaho. winking smiley

What did NNR do to your rx7 in Boise? That'd be quite an off to make it there.
