Never done or been to a TT before...no idea what to expect? Anyway, after doing a handful of SCCA Hillclimbs, we have some time this weekend and decided to do a one day TT here at our local track CMP on Memorial Day. Running Papa Smurf in GT2 class.
Nadine has never driven in a true competitive event on a track (her only competitive driving is autocrosses and Hillclimbs), so she wanted to try this. Sounds like it's somewhat like a Drivers Ed with timing? Either way, it's a day on track and should be fun. Plus it gives us a chance to try out some of the data and video toys we have, and see if we can get the communication radios working.. I'm approaching this as a test day with trophies!!

Damn, was looking forward to some footage. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
I just competed it TT with NASA for the first time in May. The director told me to sandbag, no 4-offs or spins and he'd sign me off. I went out in my first session and did a big spin at turn 13. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I had no more incidents and he signed me off. Get your car fixed and get back out there. Something else, TT seems to be the hardest i've ever ran my car. Trying to squeeze out tenths of seconds is rough on my old car. Hope she holds up, have Chumpcar coming up! |
