That was the craziest day of my life

Really Long…

I cant even think of the words that could explain my ride in the TechART GT2. After I was all strapped in with my helmet on and every thing he rolled down pit row and I was mesmerized by the sound of the engine. Then he hits it right out of the pit and right there I knew my life was complete Before I could blink I managed to peel my head off the headrest and look at the speedo b/c we were coming up on a sharp ass turn I read 100+ when he slammed on the brakes and entered the turn with a perfect apex then exited like a bat outa hell. I could not even function at that point my face must have had a ear to ear smile stuck between every chance I was able to breath on the straights. Every thing I had ever been taught about physics was getting thrown down the shitter every time he would rip into the turns. The sounds of the turbines spooling up and perching at shifts had me in a trance as I tried to soak in the drivers every movement and what the car was doing. On the last turn left turn of the in that section he slides it right onto the straightaway and kicks her a little oversteer when the two right wheels hit the dirt a little . Then boom once again we rocket into space...90, 110, 130, 150, to 165 (personal record)...I can not understand how this is possible a huge turn is right ahead...again full breaks..I can still not comprehend the stoping power of that thing. In a what seamed like a few seconds he had the car down to around 70 and pulled hard on the inside passing an M5 like passing a fat lady on a tricycle(never thought I would experience that one) We shoot past the show grounds like a bullet...Lap #1 complete The next 4 laps were getting just a little crazyer every time(tire temp). The last lap I think he was trying to scare me a little or something it was great....At mid turn in turn 2 @ about 90MPH he blips the bitch and the back end kicks like a mofo Full oversteer(I was thinking OMG this crazy fuker is drifting a $200,000+ car at 90mph) When we were about to snap out of the drift is the only point when I thought he was going to loose it.....Nope he whips it back the cars weight shifts and enters the next right hander in another perfect drift(AM IN HEAVEN??) as we slide past the apex of the turn we are already lined up with the exit and come right out. I was trying to say something, anything after we were back on the staight but I could not manage to speak. After the last few turns we get off an I get out of the car kind of dazed with a bunch of people around and they instruct me to follow them, I do straight to a Lotus racecar hehe Round 2...

I will spare you guys and keep this one short because IMO the Porsche was “THE SHIT”

The Lotus was an open cockpit race car. It weighed only 1,400lbs and only had a 250hp powerplant. But damn talk about handling...The thing stuck to the ground like gum It seemed like you were going crazy fast because of the open cockpit but I looked over and the max speed we hit was 215km/h. He would enter turns at a crazy speeds and never really got on the brakes a lot like the Porsche but the Lotus never once would feel loose during all the laps. It defiantly kicked a lot of ass.

Well I am going to stop rambling on but it was truly the biggest rush of my life. I am still going over some of the drivers moves in my head all day

Thanks a lot guys..I have some pictures I will post up when I get home from work..Later, Sean
