Training for the Cannonball Run/2008 One Lap of America

Here is video of me today, doing my 2008 One Lap of America qualifying training/laps at the BeaveRun raceway.

I am driving a Mazda Miata as the 451 smart fortwo project car forfiveone is still in Canada being worked on, but I was able to drive the Miata at speeds around corners at over 100mph, beating a Ferrari Testarossa and in this video easily catching and passing a Porsche 911 Carrera.

As the song says "its not what you got, its how you use it".

Enjoy the video and look forward to seeing you at the 2008 One Lap of America!
