Talking Track Day Video - Exhaust Sound :)

A little piece I put together from my trip out to Putnam Park Road Course.

Fantastic experience and was blessed enough to have had the track to myself for the better part of the day.

Enjoy

Looks like fun day. I didn't see you get loose, how was feel any push or over steer?
How were the brakes after some laps?
What a great time with a empty track.
Where is this track?

Let's just say it's a well balanced car, and that if pushed too hard in both regards, you'll get over or understeer.

I have CCB's so they were perfect never any issues...tires were a limiting factor however, was super hot out and the car isn't the lightest thing in the world LOL.

As to location search Putnam Park Road Course

Cheers!!

Any heat related issues for the engine or transmission?


It is unfortunately well known that in stock form the W204 C63 will go into limp mode on hot days after 20-30 minutes of hard lapping.

Most welcome!

And only drove in race mode with Manual shifting enabled and ESP fully off.

Only thing I really played with throughout the day was short-shifting vs riding out the RPM range...
