Glad you made your personnal best. Continue to put that in pratice and confidence will come faster than you think.

You have some good hands, that matters to me when i push people. You have to understand the limit of the car.

I will see you at the next event

Hey Tom, been doing this for 10 years and still learning! Now that I'm sitting passenger seat, I'm using vision at a higher level(as well as anticipating what my driver as well as others may do on track) All of these things combined are actually making me a better driver! So let me take a minute to thank you and all the greens for helping me become a better driver!
P.S. Try and stay away from Kenny, he's a bad seed!
(See my sig.)

Seb's post is very valuable tangible real world info to a greenie. On my first event in May I was kind of adopted by Steve and Mary Schindler from Rutland Vermont.They offered up 2 days of advice and shade. Steve was a red driver and he too had a Boxter. It stuck with me that despite his enormous deficit of horsepower he was flying around the track faster than many RS's. Seb is clearly doing the same. There is a big lesson to take away from that.. I don't know where I am leaving all those seconds but I get the feeling I am going to have a lot of fun finding them.

Best,
You were missed - I think it was the first time I've been at RSR without you there.
Your kid did ok, though! 😀

I'm still registered for August. 3 days! I'll have to pack extra duct tape and binder twine! Hope my car will make it through! Maybe I can graduate this time. ��

Hoosiers is my guess.
Clarke's girlfriend was scary fast as well for her first time at Tremblant.

Yup hoosier

The mancation gang are long time drivers , instructors and club racers.

Its very good for their 1st time at lcmt. But im sure you can do 1:45 with a gt3/rs or lower.
