| Wow what a track .. my all time favorite track could now be Donny (instead of Cadwell) We got out on track just after 10am, had to wait for a couple of ice patches to melt first. Numbers were low so they split us into two groups instead of the normal three, which meant more track time, I think I had 8 sesssions and did over 50 laps. But I still couldn't say I know the track well, say like like Mallory or Cadwell. Highlights for me must be the run down Hollywood and through Craner curves - absolutely awesome, especially as you cant see them to satrt with  and also the run up through Scwantz Curve is cracking when you get it flowing right - not many times yesterday for me! But I still need to learn the track alot as I only started usign full thottle after lunch  Kept forgetting the "slow in/fast out" approach especially at the Old Hairpin and Mcleans which messed up the exit line and speed. Approach to Coppice is weird as well going uphill/over a brow and you have to brake before seeing the corner - well at least I did, good job there was good run off for me in my early sessions  First time out on Diablo's and they took awhile to warm up (hardly suprising in Nov') but after 2 or 3 laps they seemed good. I can't wait till August now. Cheers  |
