Instructor: "That's not how you do it."
Driver: "Where were you 300 yards ago?"

HA!

I think that's called "running out of talent halfway through a corner".

Yeah, I want to make a gag reel of all my offs there. That one was 80 mph, I have at least a dozen Between 60 and 100 mph, never did anything but drive (safely and with permission from the flag station) back on track and keep learning to drive. We were truly blessed - first time you do that on most tracks, you destroy your car (how the Hell do you learn to drive at the Glen?). I had so much more to learn there, really pissed that it is gone. Like the death of a good friend, all you can do is celebrate the time you had together....

You look where you want the car to go.
And bring rain tires.
