Yes, I did one lap in a rental car... I told myself I was only doing one lap, b/c I wasn't sure what the coverage was on it in the case of an accident or if they caught me there, what they would do about it (some companies charge you around $3000 for "brakes and tires"). It was awesome... I almost spun out once in some lower speed stuff, trying to keep up with a race-prepped ford focus... I wish I had played forza before I went and learned the track though because its 95% blind corners. I actually tried to go back once after that but my credit card company thought my card was stolen over the weekend and turned it off... and they were closed. I was not happy at all!

I hope to go around May this year and do multiple days in my friends race-prepped e30 318... I just have to figure out how to pay for the roundtrip plane ticket...
Did you get familiar with the track on Forza this time?

I did a while back but have since sold my Xbox... however, this time I will have a semi-professional driver from the ring as my copilot!

You should have him talk to you rally car style like my friend does for me. Nothing like someone going medium left into a corner to help your lines.

Wow those video are amazing. I don't think I'd be able to drive at that speed on someone's bumper through those turns.
