Taken from Norcalevo.net: Matt Steele's track day. 
Matt Steele.
WOW, what an awesome day! It was really cool getting to hit the track with everyone yesterday, and we had a very cool crowd out there. Xtreme Car Chess FTW! It was too funny jumping on and off track so I could give tons of people rides...really puts a fresh perspective in to just how much fun it can be out there.
As for my times, I honestly couldn't be happier. I'd love to say it is all driver, but there's just no way. The Evo that GST Motorsports and Speed Element have put together is just a damn beast. Adding Muellerized to the mix, and going out on the new Moton setup with some good Rcomps, took the car to a whole new level of speed out there.
Now for the bad news...was actually ready to weep last night. All that awesome stuff on track and the nut behind the wheel was too loose...somehow didn't push the damn CF card in all the way so none of the G2X data came out! It absolutely kills me not to be able to look it back over, but at least I do have some great vid to review (and to verify my time LOL). I used just before the final line as a reference point.
Here's the link to the youtube version, but I'll see about getting a full-sized version hosted somewhere.

Couple high/lowlights of the video:
- Totally choked Turn 1 because a) someone was coming out of the hot pits, and 
I still continually choke turn 1 anyway.
- Turn 5 is still turn 5 for me...can't seem to carry enough speed over there.
- Turn 9 is my turn 1 deja-vu...still not carrying enough speed through there.
- Bouncing off the rev limiter heading down to 10. (need to get Bryan to raise that bad boy up to 8K)
- Bouncing off the rev limiter in to Turn 14 (damn you Paul Langlie and your taller 4th...Bryan, let's go to 8.5k)
- Bouncing off the rev limiter out of Turn 15 (nobody to blame but myself LOL)
- Little 'Han Solo jumping to light speed' woohoo as the time pops up on the G2X
