Great video! Can't wait for the next one.

Did #100 cheat a bit on the exit corner onto the oval when chasing the Cayman? She cut under the cones. Just wondering if that's condoned or frowned on?

I'm on the edge of my chair about 2" from the screen learning into the corners, and rocking back and forth during braking -- I'm sure somebody looking into my office is probably wondering what the heck I am doing ...

good stuff!

In this instance, generally ok. The cones in that section were obviously hit and moved by an earlier car and thus, they are more like obstacles - especially the first time that a driver sees the "new" configuration.

Also, it looks like the #100 is gaining on the Cayman and in previous corners the Cayman driver overslowed (and then made it up in horsepower on the straight), so the #100 might have also been taking the best line to avoid the Cayman.

Last, in subsequent laps, the #100 takes the traditional line which is what leads me to make the above statements.
