Yes Craig, I can't disagree with most of that, its all good advice.

Except for the Eyes part. Not really sure how you think I know where I'm looking and the reason for a lot of the mid turn corrections is that I'm pushing it hard enough to deliberately break loose on the wet pavement and those adjustments are seat my pants corrections I'm making to keep from completely breaking lose when I felt car falling outside the zone of control. The whole purpose of this ride was for a little limited drift and oversteer after all, but not making a trip off into the run off area, lol.

Its also the reason I'm holding my line really tight on the inside of the turns in a way I never would if I was shooting for the fastest path through. If the car is going to break lose in a bad way and completely lose control I do not want to do so right on the outer edge of the pavement where there is no safety zone left. I would never do any of this on a track with other cars around, but as I stated before, it was a great test of both the new oversteer bias and the stability algorithms in my updated software.

So my defense for the non-hands stuff like the strange lines and overloading the car in the apex and exits were two-fold. I've just converted my car from being an understeering pig with a bit of body roll to boot to a much more roll resistant chassis with a tendency for oversteer until the computer decides its too much and tries to over-ride the rear end passing me around.

When it comes to next week's event where there are going to be cars all around me and I'm trying to be competitive, that's not the time to find that all my recent mods are going to do something to make the car uncontrollable or react badly if not just too differently than what I'm used to.

It would be sheer stupidity to me to have made the changes I did and take it right to a wheel to wheel event. Testing is key to how suspension and related changes effect the car, and you are not going to know where the new limits lie until you find them, and see what happens when you push right past them.
