I'm not a fan of "watching" racing but this one was really good. I saw this in person at Mid-Ohio but this video is actually much better coverage than someone could see in person. However watching the start around the 4 min mark was the best evar. Watching cars 3-4 wide and the carrage at the 1st competitive turn was insane. 60 cars with all the same exact mods was pretty cool.

Spec Miata, most def some of the best racing at all the SCCA events I use to attend and help pit crew for some ITB VW rabbits.

Thanks for the link! I almost forgot to look for these speedcast vids this year.

They just posted up the SU and ST1 race (<-- these are the two top classes within NASA).

Use the same link.

The last few laps were bad ass!

Haha! That sums it up. Yeah, for anyone considering "wheel to wheel" racing... You should NOT watch these videos. Local club racing is nothing like these races at Nationals. I don't think you even see this much contact in professional racing, much less amature racing!
