      Thanks Norm, was wondering if you had seen the results and videos from my last event yet.



      Not sure that it makes any difference but I was up into the mid 60 mph range at the end of all 3 straight stretches on that course. It was really giving the low horsepower cars fits...most of them were shifting 6 times or more during a run.

      You should have seen the grin on my face get bigger and bigger as I walked the course for the first time...and then after each run.

      I'm wondering now if I shouldn't have braked harder while keeping the car in a straight line and then entered the corner much later (late apex)? This way I would have been completely off the brakes mid corner and if set up properly could have gotten back to the gas faster. The pinch point in that corner was the cone on the outside entering the next straight. If I had used a later apex line, I might not have needed to use as much steering input at that point where I slid the inside front tire.

      It was hard to stay out as long as I did though, carrying that much speed and knowing how tight of a 180 turn it was...it was like it sucked me into the turn early on just about every run.
