On the downside, I guess I shouldn't be expecting a repeat of those half dozen laps. On the bright side I won't have to worry about the setup of my 993.

Except at least in traffic you're allowed to pass! This is worse! I came this close to getting sucked into the madness myself, but watching from trackside I was so glad I took a pass.

Oh, and the worst part? On top of everything else you will be sitting there on the track, not moving for minutes at a time, not even able to do anything more than ride your brakes down the corkscrew at 3mph (if that), all the while thinking over and over again, $%^&^%$$@ chuck911 was right, %^&$#^&&!!!!
