If you enter incorrectly say by letting your foot off the throttle suddenly then turning you will lighten up the rear end and possibly spin. Especially a concern with 200 tw tires.

Come up on T1 carefully by hugging the k rail on the right side and then steady turn in aiming for and touching the inside curb mid late apex.

When approaching T1 keep a look out on the opposite side of the k rail where cars typically enter the track. Best time to look for cars entering track is when you are going down the straight and begin viewing the start/finish tower.

I'm sure the flaggers and pre-grid folk will be in full communication but just something to be aware of.

Have fun and keep the shiny side up :thumbsup:

Yep Yep. That was the only turn that made my "Kohoni's" tingle. Least theres not a K rail on the outside of that turn.....Might be damp up there too, that should make it interesting.....

Turn 1
If for some reason you are going to go off do not
pull it back quickly or turn hard... they rolled two
new subaru's on the same weekend a bunch of
years back trying do that exact thing

Like our Camaro buddy says get the Apex right and
you should be able to ease thru in 4th.. then pin it
down to turn 2 for hard braking and a downshift

I live on a road with frequently replaced guardrails . . . the new ones sometimes last a month before getting new dents. I like how shiny the new ones are--they're kind of like Christmas decorations in the turns.

The word you were looking for, Glassman, is cojones.:poke:

That's better than what I heard this morning, Bob. Here's hoping!

Is it wrong if I haul my car with a truck I sold earlier in the week? I've only received a deposit thus far . . .

Bastard!! LOL

The weather is fine!!!! Come on down!!

It's going to be a great weekend and there's room for a couple more cars to join in the fun! Call your buddies and tell them to get up here!!

If they allow exhibition I'll run both days. Not swapping my Hoosiers for 200 tw tires. Just not practical for me.
