So, do I I left for the right handed, no. It’s different in different cars, but I don’t lift in either of them.

Drifting
Being gradual on the throttle at the exit of the esses is a good way to go as you build momentum on the 2nd fast part of the track. Agreed.
Am I flat at T3 apex? No, it’s a GT3 and has to much power for that. But I start Feeding gas at 3 and that doesn’t stop as I turn in for the right hander. The foot is flat somewhere around apex of T4.

The first two sprints are 35 minutes and the third 30 minutes. All Vintage races are 30 minutes. All races are on Saturday due to the legal restrictions Lime Rock operates under. We have a muffled 88db DE on Thursday. There is an unmuffled Test and Tune from 1-6pm on Tuesday.
Hope to see everyone there.

Between the left hander and the right hander into no-name you should be flat for a second once you get the car straight. The idea is that after you come out of the left hander your car should be all the way to the left and parallel with the left side of the track. You can go flat for a second before lifting and/or braking slightly for the right hander into no name. Flat on no name and very light brake to set the nose to make the uphill turn. The hill provides compression so you should be flat from the apex all the way to west bend. Let the car track out as you go over the hill but make sure you have your hands straight at the top of the hill. Depending on the power of your car you will either get air or the front end will get very light. If you have steering input, and then the nose comes down as you crest the hill, the car will shoot off the side of the track.
If you are driving in GTB1 class please disregard the above. Just stay behind me during the race and I will show you the line. ;-)

Ugh, turn numbers for LRP?! They have names.
