2-2008	Laguna Seca - The Pointby: This is a lesson for the passer and the passee - choose where you make your passes / give point bys wisely. I could easily and cleanly have passed him between T9 and T10, but didn't get the point by. I was given the pointby in the worst possible place, going into T11. I took it, knowing it would be virtually impossible...and it was :) I think we'd both agree the straight between T9 and T10 would have been a better choice. The starter even shook her finger at me (you can just make it out. .264 MP4/Windows Media	:50	19MB	J. Wurth
4-2007	Buttonwillow - C6 Z06 Driver has a bit of a braking problem, and rather than going straight off track, decides to try to make the turn. I think he knew I was about to beat his fast lap, and it was all planned ;)	:26	4.2MB	J. Wurth
12-2006	Streets of Willow Springs Spin - Driver tries to carry a bit too much speed over a transition in the pavement from netural to negative camber...and finds there's a limit to what opposite lock can accomplish :)	:36	8.5MB	J. Wurth
2-2006	Buttonwillow S2000's Incident, 2 Race-Prepped S2000's nearly collide and spin off track in front of me. Best part of video - the look my passenger gives me after it happens :)	:38	5.6MB	J. Wurth
2-2005	Streets of Willow Springs, CW, 2001 Z06, No ABS, in the rain on street tires after the track was oiled down. 2 entertaining laps!	3:35	18MB	J. Wurth
8-2003	Streets of Willow Springs, CCW, 2001 Z06, It turns out tires get greasy when they get too hot! Who knew?	:33	1.1MB	J. Wurth
1-2003	Sears Point, CW, 2001 Z06, Extreme drifting, or too much trail braking? You decide.	:23	4.7MB	J. Wurth
1-2003	Sears Point, CW, 2001 Z06, Driver apexes 3rd "S" too early, putting him in no position to make 4th "S" without spinning. Decides he won't make it and steers straight over kerb trying to stay off walls. Hits kerb again on track re-entry, putting car into sideways slide. Keeps it on track with luck.	:22	4MB	J. Wurth
3-2002	Sears Point, CW, 2001 F360, Driver drops two wheels on turn exit, lifts off the throttle, and spins into dirt berm	:19	1.7MB	Tazio
5-2001	Willow Springs, CW, 93 RX-7, Why you don't want to follow too close. (also why you want to wave people by)	:27	2.4MB	J. Wurth
