Default I found these videos pretty cool.

A guy in the Capital Driving Club near Baltimore, MD pieced together two videos to show different lines and handling cars have.

Very interesting footage, thanks for the link. I might get a camera for my car, I'd like to study my lines with say the lines you or a more experienced driver takes for comparision. I know yesterday I was being very conservative on that one corner before the straight that was catching everyone out. (The one where our other corner worker was standing, next to the camera guy.) I probably lost a few 10th there because I was going a bit wide to avoid hitting the cone. Same with the kink after the short straight before the loop section. I could have taken that with more speed, but after watching a lot of people go off course I was braking a hair for it.
