Great time at Race City

One of our exotic car dealers held a track day last Sunday. Excellent day for a run. The track was 32C and the car was running nice and cool even though I was running between 4500 and 6000 rpm all day. Each of us had an instructor as well. To really understand what these cars can do, you need an instructor to bring it out of you and the car. I have to say I am impressed with the CAV. Very well balanced car. Looking forward to the track day next month!

Re: Great time at Race City

One more pic. This is turn 4 at race city on a hair pin. The wide track is 3" wider than stock. Really helped keep her planted. Damn fun car. Its too bad we are such a cold city (4 months of decent weather), I would gladly make this a habit!
More pics and video to come...
