Blackhawk videos - Viper VS Evo

Made two videos from a lapping day event at Blackhawk Farms Raceway in Illinois.

Battle - Evo VS Viper

Viper was trailered 1.5 hours to track
Evo was driven 2.5 hours to track

In all honesty, when I was watching live at the track, I thought the Viper won the battle. Mostly because (from where I was standing) it always appeared that the viper was right on the tail of the evo for the 4 or 5 laps the evo was out front (Video shows traffic was bit of a factor). Once the Viper passed the evo, it appeared the evo only stuck behind the viper for a lap or two before the viper and evo separated. Again, that is what I saw live at the track, not knowing anything else.

It is very hard to judge from watching at one spot on such a large track. That is why in-car video is so cool. I also didn't know the evo was having braking concerns after following the viper for a couple laps, thus the drop back. (note 6:33 in the video)

Either way, It was some awesome driving and very fun to watch. We definitely need more friendly competitions like this going on.

So who won the battle in your book?


Oh yes, the compilation video....
