Thanks for being true to your word and posting the good and the bad. It is helpful for those of us who may end up in one for spec or endurance.

Chin up and try to relax, sounds you're already getting a fine "edumication".

Wait until Atlanta, should be a massive field! Try to pace those Pombo brothers....

Yup...met them back November and their parents. Great skills and great people. I'd be a "happy boy" if I can stay on their tail.

[to find out the only reason I couldn't match the fast lap times was because of one small section on the track that I was taking too fast and scrubbing off speed through the turn following it. I thought I was doing it well because I could still take the next turn full throttle without lifting. It all came down to a scrub radius on the front tires.



Which corner Seth?
