Were you in a locker room when you posted that?

Very quick. It's a down hill, off camber turn and needs to be treated with a little more respect than I gave it. If you hit it right on line, you can accelerate really hard out of it and blast right through turns 8 and 7. For now, I need to not worry about speed and focus on the fundamentals.

Saturday morning I went through the horrible process of putting the car to bed for the winter. When I was changing the oil the temps were in the mid 70's. A few hours later while finishing washing and drying it the temps were in the mid 50's. This is a shot from Monday morning. Nothing like waiting till the last minute to put it away.
