yeah good driving - reter, look out.....
if peter get's the 4.0, all you heirs have to go back to the drawing board.
The RS around me are getting faster fast ;-) They not need to worry about 4.0 unless I win the lottery. I do play.

Haha, I tried that in my MKI it did help, but I forgot half the time and almost crashed screwing around with the little button...

MKII no need, stiff everywhere no problem.

ok - yeah no good to distract yourself from main game. randy's car looks very bouncy through 17/1. sounds very strong though.

a- Don't undersell yourself! You were doing 2:27 with the mkI while I did 2:32 last time (even though it was quite hot and my first time with the car ). You have some bragging rights by doing 2:26 in this heat

b- I need the same instructor you had to improve my times

Randy great driving, I saw myself for a few seconds, while I was following Carl (cup car) and make a video. I think you're doing just great, just need to carry a little more speed. It's just a matter of time, until you get comfortable with the car.
Very nice driving, you should be proud.

Please PM me about the instructor thing.

tks.

Nice times.. I will throw in a couple suggestions. In Bishops you are very tight on the entrance pylon and the second pylon making the left. You are not carrying as much speed if you came in little faster and swung little wider between those 2 and wider off the second pylon. You are already off the gas as you try to stay to the left at the second pylon. This is an acceralation spot. On 16, you enter coming straight off the curbing and down the black tar strip with your left side tires. You are hitting way to early an apex here. Notice where you track out on the outside curbing. You can get fully on the gas until the marked track out pylon towards the end of the curb. Try entering with your right side wheels on that black line and see what that does for entry and exit speeds. Nice job though....

I try to put my two right tires over the black tar line going through bishops......so put all four over it?

I have been owrking on speed there, each day I go a little faster. This is my fourth day at Sebring with this car......each day my times go down a bit. We will see after PBOC next weekend

16 needs work, I feel most people have higher exit speed ther than me. I was trying to early apex instead of swinging out wide for a late apex. so right tires on black race line......check....ill report back
