Default No fancy car...... average rookie skills at best.........

not aggressive enough.....

racing 40 minutes of the enduro against Giacomo for what turned to be 5th position in F at the Glen....... Awesome.........

I know that I have a long way to go, but I enjoyed every second of the enduro.....

P.S. It was great to meet VR and all the other RLs......

Till the next one.......

Oh, yes I did have 1 pass.....

Nice to see a Clash video without tire blow outs, carnage, and mirrors falling from the sky.
Well done, Doc.

Nice, clean, safe and predictable. That's a great way to get started.

Looking good. It's all about seat time.

Nice clean racing. Well done. I love that track (or the look of it). The video is really good quality too. What are you using?

Good mindset and it looks like you are having a good time which is an often forgotten point in non pro racing. +1 thanks for posting a video that does not require the observer to cringe at some point.

The picture posted of the Clash boneyard with the row of bent cars shows the un-fun part.

Nice smooth work Paolo!
The black F car was holding you up, of course. Once you got stuck behind him, notice how the cars ahead start pulling a gap on you two. There appeared to be a couple of places where you were potentially quicker and could have set up a pass, but that would have required leaving space to make a run into the passing move. Its all about seat time, and assessing where the opportunities lie.
