... it appeared to be a Camaro SS and it also seemed that if he wasn't getting a 'point-by' he wasn't really paying attention to anything but getting that next 'point-by'.
The red RX-7 was mid-way into the brake zone, so if this (video) person was really paying attention, they'd a now'd that. I dunno, I've looked at the event pix and don't find many of the cars in that video, let alone a red RX-7 or even an F-body. |

So true, I was wincing each time they went around another car expecting something bad to happen! Not much attention paid to the line or whether it was a good place to pass.

I think it was to much car for them, or was trying to keep up with a better driver! They would TRY and follow the car in front, even when the subi spun (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) they just followed the spinning car :leaving:
The rx7 did have some pretty good rear brake lockup, about 20' of rubber! It scared the crap out of them and slammed on the brake's (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) We have all made mistake's once, this was just a big one! |
