Novice Day at Willow Springs Raceway

Here is a link to the article on a track experience in the G35 coupe on the Willow Springs Raceway in Rosamond, California. (The self proclaimed "Fastest Track in the West").

The car camera video will be inserted into the article in a couple of days, assuming the disc I burned is decipherable by the host when they receive it.

This was a day when the temps were running 102-106 degrees during the early afternoon run sessions, and there were four G35 coupes and two G35 sedans out there, plus a half dozen 350Z cars and half a dozen S2000 Hondas. Also several 300ZX Twin Turbos, a couple of them tricked up to 400hp, a 240ZX with twin turbos and a wing, and some other good iron. We had to run a bit conservatively given the temperatures on the track, though the cars handled the heat very well. Pushing air over the radiator at high speed does work! Hope you enjoy it.
