An alternative way to enter the track at Laguna Seca:

HOLY LORD! What the hell? Did you ever get an explanation?

 

Been playing too many videogames... I do it all the time in GT4 and rFactor... no penalties there. Of course, you can hit walls at speed and there are no penalties either. Real life ain't so kind...

SKETCHY!

 

GOOD LORD!!!

uuh.. that was very very close...

 

So the fool got excited while entering using the "motorcycle entrance" and blew through the turn, across the gravel, and out onto the track. Not the best way to enter the track.

 

His explanation was that his friend had just changed the brakes on the car and didn't pump the pedal. He said that he had no brakes and had to pull the e-brake.

My asian copilot, Tricia Takanawa, didn't flinch.

 

Wow.

Whose event was it?

 

Speedventures. He came in for a lap and out the next.

 

scwank..GTR2?

 

GTR2 doesn't have the laguna track yet, but Rfactor does.

 

I thought someone might know the cat on this board. It was an eye opener, but no harm no foul...I guess.

 

i was there.
moron.
alwasys TEST brake BEFORE you get on track.
and he's way too fast on the motorcycle entrance if pulling E brake didn't stop him.

 

I'm not sure if I saw you. What group were you running?

Laguna is a great track, isn't it?

 

open passing group (red i think).

yes, LS is a great track.

what group / car were you in?

 

Same. I guess Red was running pretty similar times and was pretty spread out. It was a good weekend, although that fiasco happend during the second lap of the second session on Saturday. It would have been a very disapointing end to what turned out to be a fun weekend.
