Default Track Clip for PCA DE

Here's a clip of my recent track outing. Still trying to build back some confidence as this is the same track as the infamous crash of 2006!

Miles,

Welcome back!

Remember...small steps at a time. Don't worry about your speed right now, work on feeling the car again.

If you really want to work on lowering your lap times, you may want to think more about "using less brake" rather than thinking about "using more throttle"...

You'll gain proficiency/confidence over time...you've got lots of time, so relax and enjoy yourself!

It's all about having fun!

Forget about times, just have fun and the speed will come for free.

By the last run of the day I was feeling much more comfortable! I am ready to back again. Next event is only a few weeks away. Thanks for the encouragement.

Miles, how is this car compared to your last? Does it feel any different? Did you guys make any changes to the powertrain?

We changed several things from the first car. The trans is in better shape and has LSD. The front suspension was upgraded with the Racer's Edge A-arms and RS Barn upper and lower braces. The car has never felt this solid.
