Great shots Dane---remember to PM me when you are going next time--can't wait to get my first "off track" photo.

word of advice, if you start off the track like those photos show, straighten the steering wheel/car out and drive OFF the track, do NOT try to stay in it like those photos show you doing. You got lucky but sooner or later you will hook an edge and either shoot back across the track and take someone out, or roll the car. Willow Springs for instance is notorious for rolling cars because people try to save it, and BW run off is not much better.

Actually earlier in the day I came into that corner so hot I did just that, I went straight off rather than bother dealing with correcting and possibly spinning in 2 cars behind me. In this case it was correctable, but I'm not afraid to get all 4 off, especially in the case of traffic or getting in someones way.

This maneuver was done slow, less than 15mph... I nearly locked up the tires trying to slow. It just looks fast in the photos ;)

My favorite Track for sure. It was my first time there and I'm hooked. Makes Big Willow and Streets boring. I'm now a die-hard BW fan.

Great pics, I upgraded to power steering over the winter and was not sure how I would like it. Turns out it was a good upgrade, although I did have fun man-handling it last year on the big tracks.
