Track days are not a race. Recruiters from Ferrari are not there watching you drive. Street cars are not race cars. Be safe and courteous and don't take risks with other people's cars, livelihoods and lives on the line. Good video, I thumbs up liked followed friended subscribed donated.
@@TheStraightPipes My race engineer will be discussing my contract in my trailer to find out whether or not I can be on track with you at the same time. My lawyers need to determine the liabilities and risk to my sponsorship deals. Welcome to the big leagues kid.
I absolutely love how this video was edited! Being able to watch the car going around the track, AND seeing everyone at the same time is so awesome. Makes the video much smoother, less choppy from all the different camera angles.
The view of you guys in the rear window is so unsettling 😂. But very cool! Unique take. Interesting video I learned a lot. That E brake tip I had no idea.
You'd learn just as much in games like GT Sport or iracing. But it's good to hear extra this bits from an instructor like the professional in this video!

2000 Acura TL with a transmission that has no business being on the track XD But it does have supporting mods like a full exhaust upgrade with headers and an AEM V2 CAI and upgraded sway bars wheels and tires so it can hold its own ;o
Took my SRT to a track day here at Portland raceway had so much fun, i recommend every car lover do this at one point just to get all that built up energy out
Cooler, chair, glass cleaner, notepad, pencil, IR temp gun, tarp or large container to put your stuff in (in case it rains), mechanic gloves, amongst some other things.
Excellent idea for a video! Most people are wanting to do track days, but have no idea what to expect (me). We don't want to screw up a day for people more experienced. Great idea for a video. Can't want to hit a track.
Just wanted to congratulate Hyundai, Brian herta motorsports, Mark Wilkens, and Michael Lewis for winning the TCR CHAMPIONSHIP in the first year of competition for the Veloster N! Also congratulations to everyone in your pit crew for claiming such an amazing season. Hyundai has truly made a spectacular car going against such cars as the Audi RS3, CIVIC TYPE R, AND ALFA. What an amazing victory nobody deserves it more then you and your team guys truly spectacular.
I really appreciate the videos fellas. You guys are organically becoming all things motor sports. Thank you and Congratulations on a pretty badass job.
I've been watching youtubers go to tracks for ages, but have yet to see anyone bother to tell people what to do when they go the first time. Good job on that.
I've never been on a track, but I'm glad they answered my biggest concern which is what to do when a faster car comes up behind you. Staying straight and possibly signaling to the side you want them to pass you makes total sense, but it's good to know ahead of time.
Absolutely phenomenal use of the 360 cam with fantastic angles and that sweet little rear window cam. Amazing production value as well, would LOVE to see a behind the scenes sometime. How long you spend with a review car, and how much production is actually involved. It feels super polished, but I love the run and gun style you bring.
Love mark such a down to earth humble guy. I follow every race or sould i say the TCR series and always rooting for my fellow N driver. Thanks for the video guys your the best please keep the stoving to a minimum lol.
I track my veloster n one weekend a month and it lives up to the hype...Impresses everyone...all stock, with exception being hankook ventus rs-4s...greatest performance value ever
I am enjoying the Patreon behind the scenes videos that explain why you use a monopod/stick camera mount at 16:59 and how you hid the multiple links at 11:58.
Great camera work in this video. Actually really enjoyed the view of from the back with you all in the rear window. Worked really well, definitely better than a traditional picture-in-picture or split screen.
Tracking my Veloster N on Road America in a couple of weeks for the first time! This video came out just in time. I hope to be able to make it out the Toronto Motorsports Park meet on the 29th and meet you all
Should also bring a folding chair and, if you have the room, a canopy for much-needed shade if not available at the track. Also, if car numbers are needed, some painter's tape, which can also be used to cover and protect your headlights. If you're a sweater, a balaclava is a good idea to protect your helmet liner.
I track my Veloster Turbo R-spec every chance I get. Fast as anyone through the twisties. Get blown away down the straights. BUT WHEN IT RAINS... oh boy do I love that FWD in the wet... (Also, I installed Moog camber bolts up front and now have -1.5 degrees of camber.) And yes, after one year, I'm going to trade up to the N. Really want that extra 74hp...
What a great group, in such a great car lol I loved feeling like a part of it. I hope this kind of thing can resume after the pandemic. You stove it in every time.
Wish more people would watch this. Just had a track day at TMP and there was this dangerous dude trying to race everyone that was trying to pass him even though he was clearly slower on the slower parts of the track. Thankfully the Marshal gave him a warning and hopefully he learned his lesson. Basically be courteous and respectful to other cars, they aren't there to challenge your ego, just to safely have fun with their own cars.
You forgot.. Checking brake system, suspensions systems( swaybars, stabilizers, struts), warm up laps for tires/fluid (don't bring seasonal tires, bring in slick/sport tires for track). Too many times people bring their stupid cars thinking they can just fly around corners on public days and end up being a moving hazard. Other than that REALLY great info.
My first track day will be in a hyundai veloster N, at toronto motorsports park. the veloster N is my dream car, and i live only like 90 mins from the track, just south of buffalo, so expect to see me there in a few years!
12:15 the side you want them to pass you on? I would've thought it was the side you were keeping to, that's good to know. (also where's the rear indicators on the veloseter? )
seriously this video is top on your channel, really educative helpful, if ever you wanna review a 2020 Supra my good friend has one in black, I can always ask we are close to Montreal
What to bring to track: A properly maintained/serviced car with fresh oil A tire pressure gauge, with 4 properly inflated tires Properly torque wrenched wheels + torque wrench A tire air compressor A racing helmet Water Snacks, beef jerky, chips, nuts One thing to know is that every car can be a fun track car, from a $500 Mitsubishi Gallant, a Nissan Maxima, or Ford Fusion, to a Hyundai Veloster N, Porsche 911 turbo, and Honda Civic Si.
He should've mentioned too that if you're struggling and the guy behind you is faster, let him by and follow his line. Of course, don't over drive the car's limits if the other car is a much more capable car.
Never follow a faster driver's line at their speed because it is a really good way to put your car into a wall. It's a far better idea to get a ride with that driver, or better yet a much better driver / pro, to be in the car as they operate it, to feel the forces, and to have a headset on and ask questions about technique / throttle / brakes / etc that enable them to do what they are doing. Make every attempt possible if improving your technique is a goal, to search out and get drives with pros - absolutely nothing will help you improve your technique faster; but remember, if they are in a fast car and a Pro such as Mark, the speed that they carry and the Gforces will at first blow your mind - you will need time to absorb what they have done - and do not think for minute that when you then go out you will be able to do it. That is why continuing to search out rides as you develop is critical because you can only absorb so much. I got a ride with Mark driving my GT3 about 10 years ago at Mosport when he was setting up and teaching a fellow friend who own a cupcar. I was stuck at comfortably doing 1:35s on the big track. After 3 laps with Mark, the first two being incomprehensible to my brain at his speed over #4 and his line and speed into and around #8, I went out and took 3 seconds off my previous best - but I had already done 20+ trackdays at Mosport alone.
12:15 "signal to the side you want them to pass you on" I don't 100% agree with this. I'd say it depends on the organization you're running with and their policy. Most groups here in the Bay Area say to signal in the direction you're going, just like street driving
Can't wait to get there for the track day. Love the video, it'll be my first track day ever and I'm coming in my G70 3.3 . He mentioned the brake fluid. For 1 track day would I need to swap mine as well?
Recommend changing because if fluid is over 1 yr old it has absorbed water and brakes will fade as water changes to vapor as it heats. Cool down to let brakes cool and not warp rotors. Do not set parking brake.
What about insurance? I dont think racetracks sell some sort of insurance so I guess if you crash you'll be in trouble with your insurance company for racing your car? What's the protocol here?
Damn, I think I just fell in love with that car & everything about it, like it being a manual... Oh and: I would have wished that you'd also have covered insurance on a trackday, because if you were to crash, the "normal" insurance most likely wouldn't cover you while a special racing one (for the day) would/could...
In my opinion the most suitable trackday car is an mx-5, if you are wondering let me explain. When all other cars rely on engine power, the mx-5 only relies on its road holding
CLP yea but itd be just track to track type stuff maybe idk I’m in America and we don’t have track insurance really it’s mostly u wreck ur cars sucks u brought ur car out here have a nice day dealing with that we’ll call a tow tho
Trackday insurance is common in the UK but optional. However it only covers your car. There is no claiming on anybody elses insurance so everybody has to ensure their own insurance is in order. Typically the excess is 10% of the insured value if you claim.
looking forward to my track day at Mid-Ohio, but as an engineer, did not like the torque wrench portion early in video. As a manufacturing engineer, we find "1-one" clickers often result in over-torque of the fastener. Best practice is to back fastener off, then torque....I have no problem with "double click" if wrench does not move in rotation angle. P-Chi

Love that video on the rear window
Ready to track ready my Honda fit 💪💪💪💪💪💪😂
Jokes aside, the fit is a great first track car. Hence why there's racing series built around them

Don't you need extra/special insurance for a track day?
Afaik it's optional
Most people don't get trackday insurance; however, it can be a good idea depending on the track or car.
Depends on what you're doing. It's there if you want it, but if you aren't thrashing your car you should be fine
