Here are a few photos. I was too busy to do a complete job of it.

Love the sound of squealing tires, Eric. I may have to work out an external mic for my Go Pro.

Thanks for the photos Mark! And it was permagrin experience driving your car today!!!

Eric, I need a link to the external mic you’re using.

Here’s the only lap I took a video of today, not my best. 51.5 with a bunch of mistakes.

Hey guys, a few folks asked about my mic setup with my GoPro. Here are the things I bought to make it work.

Here is my fastest run in Mark’s car. I will post more videos of the other cars I drove soon.

P.S. thanks for the awesome time everyone!

Hi Mark,

It was a real blast taking a few runs in your FF today. Many, many thanks for the opportunity and experience! The only unfortunate side-effects have been that a) my M3 feels abysmally slow and b) I’ve spent the rest of the weekend measuring up my garage and trawling the ApexSpeed classifieds…..

Cheers,
James

Yes, it was fun Mark. Thanks for giving me a go in it. In addition to room in the garage, I’d also need foot reduction surgery on my right foot. I still don’t believe there was a brake pedal down there.

I hope some others took some pics… we were all so busy having fun we forgot about the Bombe article.

[Mark Mervich]

You are all welcome. Glad I could spread a bit of cheer. I have a few more pictures, but I posted the best ones.
Mark
