Yesterday I went to Grand Bend to do some laps in my s2000, here's a short video of what it looks like on the race track. Later in the day I took another second and a bit off my lap times, so these aren't my fastest laps. Also, turn down your sound! Because of where I placed the camera, there is unfortunately a lot of wind noise :(. Anyone want a ride? :lol:

The highest speed I saw at the end of the straight was 175.6 km/h on GPS. One of the S2000's was getting to 190 km/h on GPS but he has 125 wheel horsepower more than me. It's tons of fun, I love it! Everyone's gotta try it once in their life time I say!

WoW! not bad. I never knew Grand Bend had a road course......looks to be much bigger than DDT track at Mosport.

And good speeds...track looks nice!

They have 4 different layouts at Grand Bend, this one is the best one by a long shot. We had like 5 guys calling in and requesting this layout specifically, just to make sure we got it lol. It is quite a bit bigger than the DDT track that's for sure, I hated the old DDT track with a passion.

I hope I can get out on a track with some of you guys from here at some point this season, would be nice!

Here's another great video of the track, but from a better perspective. On this video it's okay to turn the sound up a little higher :lol:. This is my friend from Sarnia area, great driver. He was sort of behind me for this video.
