Still Charles to beat D. Shields ... seat time has def worked out for you. Congrats.
Loren ... that turn around really got the better of me and so did me mising my 2 - 3 shift to get to the turn around without being on the rev limiter like so many cars were. I did once or twice. I wanted to find that arc but wasn't doing to hot at settling in, concentrating and working with the car.
I agree about the getting on the gas a bit earlier. Its just that I started feeling bad for torturing my car the way I was. As payback the AC I had fixed Friday no longer worked Sunday afternoon. Bratz!
Though we are not out on the West Coast much anymore ... I need instruction on turn arounds. It is an area I want to improve in so I can see my times start dropping. So if you see me and think you can assist a FWD driver please hop in and let's go. Thanks.
And yes all the running ... wow I haven't had my chest hurt like that since Jr. High wind sprints ... it brought back the memory of "I have a doc note on file saying if my chest hurts ... that means no more for Angi."
Thanks for covering for me out there while I got my heart rate back in order.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
