Professional Driving Instruction

[Topless]

Sounds like you had a great day Thomas. I have talked to Marty many times but never driven with him. Definitely a good guy to have as an instructor. When I get a very experienced driver in the right seat the comment is always "unwind". We can unwind the wheel a lot quicker than we think and still maintain our racing line. All those little things matter.

So flat... no lift into turn 2 at WSIR ??? Major cajones.

Very impressive explanation. Willow is my home track too. But I ran mid-engined formula cars. There are a lot of strange things out on the desert. One day I was coming out of turn nine and I saw what looked like a giant spider go out on the track just before turn one. Then that thing took off like a rocket. Of course I could see when it got into the turn that it was a Kart.

Karts is just a wast of time, if you can get in a real car on a real track instead. Drivers in Karts can go fast in cars with proper suspension, but fast drivers in suspension cars do not necessarily go fast in karts.

Since I'm still on the stock suspension, I can't carry quite as much speed out of Turn 1 and into Turn 2 as the Spec Box's can. So for now, yes, back on full throttle out of Turn 1 and leave it there, allowing the car scrub some of the speed on its own through Turn 2 ....

Faster but still pico cajones.
