i never really got to respond to driving this weekend, but i felt like it was a GREAT weekend for being on track. The HPDE 2 group was fantastic, no trains and no real assholes. There were an incredible amount of incidents throughout saturday and a few on sunday - a lot more than usual. I felt like i finally got the braking down for the teg and the xp-10s that are equipped.
Scariest part of the weekend: Coming in to turn 1 (a 117mph and damn near bumping the rev limiter in 4th gear) and coming in too hot, spinning on track, over correcting, swinging around and facing traffic coming into 1....
hock:... It didn't really shake me up at all, but my instructor was kinda queezy. I went off 3 times this weekend joining team green and got the full trust of my instructor by the end of the session on sunday. The other two off's were at 5 and were controlled - realizing that i was coming into hot (trying to compress brake zones all weekend).
