Tracking the E63.!!
Since Kamchief has the only track videos that I've seen, just thought I'd share mine from last weekend. All shot with a GoPro Hero HD.
This session I was still trying to find the limits and figure the track out

Up to speed in this one, and I love the sound...

Final Session and probably the best angle...Didn't edit this one though...About 3 minutes of nothing at the beginning...

I'm gonna try to get out there again soon. It was a blast..!!

Oh yeah, I meant road course 
I've seen your 1/4 vid..! It honestly felt big, but pretty good for what it is...the airmatic is definitely the weak point in handling...

thanks man.!! It really was super fun...Best part was that there were 3 groups, but our group was just DFW auto club guys, so we all knew each other. 6 - 20 minute sessions was a sweet deal too.

Yeah, it's obvious they aren't made for it, but as long as you didn't think you'd be the fastest on track they're huge fun to hustle around...

Ran the 1.3 at Motorsports Ranch in Cresson today. 103 degrees at 3:00P and the track temp was around 120 
, just F'in hot all around. I got one video to post up when I'm done editing and uploading. Forgot to start the camera for 2 sessions, I'm blaming the heat 
. It was a blast again, record heat or not.!! We dropped people in the group all day and only had 5 in the group in the video

Awesome video! That track's layout is easy to follow too, sometimes they can get confusing with all of those orange cones, lol.
What was the E63's strongest points that you felt on the track? The straights?
