In-Car Video: GST Motorsports Winning Lap at California Speedway Time Attack

Here's the in-car video of the winning lap during final Time Attack session at California Speedway. When the two the final two red lights show up on the shift light the car is at 172mph. I just close my eyes at the first red light and hope for the best...

Gary,
The time blew us all away, now after seeing that lap.... Holy crap you're good at what you do. Every apex, every line, that was damn near perfect. Certainly would be where I would start if I were to try to explain perfect to someone. Now I see the cones and how they could have easily gotten in your way. It's time to re-work the front splitter anyway.
My hat's off to you.
Jeff

You know which vid would be nice to watch? In-car from the S2k during the Circuit Sockets Battle! You'll get to see how the L leave the S2k behind. It's no fun to watch the L in-car because Gary is always up front.

I wasn't there to see the actual winning lap but I was there to watch him go around once or twice. Watched them work on the car and stuff. That car is so freaking awesome. Good job! =)
