I'm showing this because IN MY MIND -- I still don't understand the "later turn in" concept. I'm going to have to be behind the wheel and try it to truly understand it. I see people doing it but have always thought "their line sucks". Yet you can often watch them pull away... although I manage to usually reel them in a turn or two later... so then think they're strategy was just "lucky" rather than good.


I'm willing to learn and to try... and part of that comes from Ron Sutton getting my cars squared away.

Ordinarily -- I know about cars and how they work. Lord knows I've built enough of them! But I am the first to admit that I know NOTHING about car handling or how to make them better or different etc. Thus my inclusion of Ron into the mix! And there the proof is in the pudding -- from a 2.20 to a 2.08 and less input from me in the process! Made it way more fun and felt way better.

I'm now a firm believer in getting the car dialed in -- which will allow me to adjust my driving - rather than just "getting thru it".
