Here's the Laguna Seca vid.

I would love to drive there one day, nice session... Except for the 911. I feel your pain, here is my final session of the weekend, only 6 cars on track and yet still jammed up... I should have gone into the pits for some spacing but I hate doing that. The older 911 is in this video too but this session he gave a very timely point by.

The 944 was slow getting started but once warmed up it was long gone.

Some nice, smooth laps at Roebling. I kind of like to have a car or two that's equal to mine to gain experience in traffic. My "miscue" in T5 in the LS video is because the 911 broke harder than I anticipated and it got me flustered. But that's how you learn. Running "qualifying laps" by yourself gives you opportunity to set personal records, but being good in traffic is also a skill to perfect.

That LS session was probably my best session over the 2 days. I look at the LS videos now and shake my head. I was slow out of corners. But I was just beginning my 3rd yr of DEing and 2 days was not a lot of time for me then. I went to a fairly local track for the 1st time this yr and by the afternoon session on the 1st day had the track figured out. I imagine thstone watches my LS video and it's like scratching finger nails on a chalk board to him.

I would go back to Laguna Seca again if the opportunity arose, but I enjoy COTA more. With twenty turns, long straights, and lots of elevations changes, it is a blast to drive. But getting back to LS to turn some improved laps would also be fun.
