I participated in my first real trackday with my Ultima. Here's some video. A friend mounted his digital camera to the front end. The volume is on the wrong setting, and picks up a ton of wind noise, so you may want to turn it down or mute it.

The group was ProAutoSports (http://www.proautosports.com/) and the course was the Bondurant west track.

I ran Friday and Saturday and had to be trailered off the course once because of a flat. Not sure whose car was nailed together, but apparently the nail ended up in my tire.

This course is short and my clutch is starting to slip, so I ran most of the course in 3rd. Even at that, I was one of the faster cars. My buddy in his yellow Cobra was faster, but after replacing the clutch this weekend, it should be a better run.
