Wow, what a ride!

I really liked the Sunday course, and drove much better than I did on Saturday. I was never aggressive enough on the first slalom, and almost too aggressive on the second, but on my best run I nailed the 180 sweeper at the end of the "drag strip" straight and was just holdin' on with a big grin on my face.

Somehow the combination of staring at the wall of steel posts before the dropoff and running out of gear at the end of the straight did a great job of reminding me not to brake too late (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

That was also the first course I've ever driven where I could really feel the T2R helping the car turn like Sam described (I've felt the lack of wheelspin all along (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ). I don't know if it was the course or changing the toe on Friday, but in several places a little gas would help bring the nose around without breaking the tail loose at all (OR plowing).

But speaking of breaking the tail loose, I did almost get a little too intimate with the chain link fence outside the entrance to the straight (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

BTW Rob, I picked up your 1st place trophy. Congratulations!
