Default 350Z "chase car" video

Just wanted to share a video from my autocross club's "fun day" last weekend. I'm driving the Z and my Fiance' is in the pasenger seat. We both had a blast!

Thanks, but we don't do the chase car video often. We hosted an Evolution driving school fri and sat and used sunday as a "fun" day for members and school attendees. I think the low number of drivers freed up time for Becky to do a few vids. (She is usually busy in the timing trailer) There was only about 30 cars there and no course workers. (We normaly have 100+ drivers at our events) Every so often, we would hold up the course and put it back together.

I am a new member so I can't take too much credit for how well organized we are, but we all work hard to make the events run safely and smoothly.

I have never seen an autocross video produced this way but I am glad they put it together, and very glad to be the subject of one of the vids.

No it's not too late! Registration is from 8am-9:30am. Course closes for walking at 9:30am. Driver's meeting is at 10am. $30 etnry fee. Don't forget your driver's license and helmet. We do have loaner hemets if you need one.

No 100 octane that I know of. There is a shell station at the colonial exit, (that's one exit past the one on the map) and, I think a chevron at the palm beach blvd exit 2 exits before the one on the map. (sorry I don't know the number)

-Hope to see you there!
