Shutter speed. Your dad's photo was taken at 1/1000, I shoot at that turn anywhere from 1/125-1/160.

We get it.... you have a fast modded car that can dog Vipers and Corvettes in the straight.... good for you. When you give a point-by with and your in a fast car, breathe off the throttle to let the car actually pass you.
lol, yeah brady owns custom car care...he's a cool dude, didn't know he was acting like that though.

Sound advice, now please pass it along to Corvette owners because by and large they are the largest offending group of this track etiquette

This isn't a shot at you at all, because I've been on track with you (years ago) and know you aren't like this. Those of us not driving V8s have to deal with the "fast in the straights" guys on a regular basis, so hearing a complaint about it from a Z06 driver just got a chuckle out of me.

Trust me I know... my student this weeeknd was in a Pontiac G6 rental and we were gaining on a new ZR1 in all the twistey sections! In this case I could tell the driver of the Integra wanted to make sure I knew his car was faster than mine. The point is that I don't care... if he could drag me down the straight and then leave me through roller coaster and then put even more distance on me through Hog's Pen then I would be truly impressed

He finally backed off on the front straight and I never saw him again.

Gotcha... I don't know him at all and that may be the case. The car was very fast down the back straight.
