The car's attitude looks pretty good for a first-timer.

So true, but the pic clearly shows you deeper in the turn. Just sayin'

That was 13 I believe. You come in hot off the interior straight, make 12 ok but gotta be careful to set yourself up for it. I f'd that one up more than once.

That will come in due time, best to worry about the things that really matter first and get those jitters out of the way. Congrats on getting her out on the track and getting some laps in Ron, it only gets better from here on.

Thanks Lance. One guy on this site has their priorities straight!

Cheers buddy,

LOL! OK, lets compare the CG to apex.

I'm guessing we were running the same configuration.......awkward 180* right hander, onto the straight with the mini kink, the under the bridge into this quick right/left series.

Here's my vid for config confirmation: http://youtu.be/bSUA-No8CYU

Finally get back on the site and I see this. Where is the love and the "on site" updates from the track? Last time I checked the text train is alive and well.

Congrats! Big day for you. Looking forward to seeing you more on the track and less at the cruise in. LOL

Nice vid Scotty! You were running a slightly diff course, but 13 is the same corner:

I also checked the 'fast line' map and you nailed it way better than I did.

LOL, sorry Payton. There wasn't much time for the train.

I already ordered track pads for another outing. Now I've gotta find time to get in the garage and sort a growing punchlist!
