Every time I've come home from a DE, I'm *exhausted*. Every time I've come home from an A/X, I'm exhausted, too. However, I think it's more from boredom than from physical or mental exertion.  |
Agreed a lot of sitting around. I got eight laps adding up to about 8 minutes. The part the was frustrating was just as you were learning the track and for me also the car's limits it was over. I did a couple of DEs with my 944S2 at Willow Springs and that is definitely the way to go. PCA has one in two weeks some I signing up for it. Good thing is it's at the same track and will loose the darn cones.
