I have just viewed this spectacular video footage.
My favorite part is at 3:06. Notice the slow motion special effects, as Carl
flicks back his long pony tail.

As I edited this video together, I tried to emphasize the fun we were
having. So the two runs (one by my self one by my co-driver Sherry) you
will find in here are not the fastest, cleanest, smoothest runs...no, they
were chosen for entertainment value. My apologies in advance to Sherry,
despite all the cones on previous runs (and how I make it look in the
video), she cleaned up her 4th run and finished within a second of my
fastest time.

Glossary of Inside Jokes:
0:05 Having fun with a new camera angle. I have LOTS of footage aiming
out the front of the car, but that gets dull after a while, so this time
around I'm shooting the driver.
0:08 Having a little too much fun with the Team Challenge aspect of this
fall NASA mini-series. Team Long Hair vs. Team Sloth.
0:15 I told Sherry that my Z has every luxury option imaginable, which is
why it weighs around 3400lbs, however...
0:24 If you downloaded either the Large or SuperSized versions, you can
hear this and other cones bonking their way down the undercarriage in
stereo.
0:37 Charlie is talking about incriminating Sherry with this footage at
Thanksgiving. Charlie, I can have this video on VHS tomorrow if you want...
;-)
2:27-2:33 The sound of a cone working it's way out from under the car
is clearly audible.
3:06 Showing off my long hair of course.
4:30 Katie (Team Long Hair) was co-driving Jim's (of Team Sloth) black
M3, and was rather put out that he beat her time.
That was a blast! I can't wait until the next event, I hope my tires hold
up... ;-)
