The mechanical failures are what concern me more than a driving error. Jeff lost his brakes and it cost him a car. A very cool and very special car too.

I heard a noise I didn't like at the end of my third session and I knew right away I was putting it on the trailer and wrapping it up. Too damn hot to even think about a thrash to diagnose and possibly fix in less than the 2 hours that were left.

This track was one that will bite you in a second. Almost zero margin for error if you are running 9 or 10 10ths... I wish I would have got more time to get the corners more automatic for me...I was still learning and having to think about which corner was coming up next when I was done for the day. Some parts of it were super fun and I was learning how to make the rest of it fun as well.
