BMW CCA HPDE at Circuit of the Americas (vid)

acj75 · 03-24-2014, 06:57 AM

I made it down to Austin for the 2nd BMW CCA Texas Trifecta at CoTA. The three Texas chapters combined and made this into another stellar event. It's truly a world class facility, and the track is absolutely flawless.

We had the option of running the track Fri-Sun, but I just drove the track Friday and did the autocross on Saturday.

Here's a video of my quickest lap from Friday:

I'm using an AiM SOLO to log MPH, timing, and G forces. I used the COBB to log RPM, ECT, TPS, gear, oil temp, charge air temp, and engine load req/act via OBD II. GoPro was used for the video, and DashWare was used to do the gauge overlay.

Looks absolutely exciting. Weird how the corner at 1:56 made your car look like it was under-steering. Thought you were gonna go off the track!
