thanks!!!

yeah i can say this was the MOST fun I have ever had besides those two girls in college and the bottle of grey goose, but that is a whole different ballpark.

I have done allot of crazy things, back country snowboarding, jumping out of plans, running from the cops, etc.... and nothing has even come close to the amount of fun this was. the adrenaline rush was just awesome. i get back to the pits and my entire body was shaking!

Cool man!

Why did the instructor tell you to turn in later? And what was he saying about not lifting as soon as you were?

I believe I turned in to early and did not hit the apex correctly. That was one thing I had trouble with. At Pocono north all the apexes are “late” according to the instructor. The turn in on that turn was very late, I kept getting scared that I would go off the track and was turning in probably 3 to 5 feet to early. I got a hang of it after my 2nd session, but still need a lot of practice on that, just need to have a little more trust in the cars ability.

I let off the gas going into that turn at like 90 + mph, and that made the rear end unstable. I believe I was supposed to have my foot floored so that the rear end stayed planted so I have traction. Letting off the gas takes traction off the rear wheels… also i think when you are accelerating the suspension is "loaded" when you let off the gas it unloads and traction shifts....I think… I am sure one of the pros here will chime in.
