Track
Something Christopher Neil Bradley and Myles Kerr might find funny.
I was digging around and found an old 8mm camera tape from one of my first track days. This was in 98 or 99, and I was driving my Supercharged Acura Integra. I was a complete newb to track driving, so expect lots of early braking, trail braking, and way early apex. Oh and terrible video quality.
The video stream was from an Intel Proshare camera I had taped to the front of the car with a composite video output going to a camcorder under the seat. I have to admit I was surprised it lasted as long as it did.
The Integra was mostly stock aside from the Supercharger. Tires were some kind of all season, fuel was pump gas, and tune was non existent. I am so shocked this car didn’t blow up. If memory serves me, it had a relay that shorted out the IAT sensor under boost so the ECU would run richer, plus it had a rising ratio fuel pressure regulator with something like 2:1 boost to fuel pressure gain. What a hack!
Power was about 245whp with a weight of probably 2700lbs.
On the plus side it was a really light car, which made for a good learning platform. The Porsche guys were always complementary of it.
About min 4 I start dispatching with some traffic. Needless to say this was the start of my real car addiction.
