Had some performance problems at the two previous races, down on power. Turned out to be electrical system was not functioning correctly and the carbs needed attention. And while they were in there, a crack was found on the suspension console on the right side...you know, right below the original battery location.
Well, the electrics were fixed, car went to the dyno to attend to the carbs and the console was welded. Viola! Car feels "right" again. So off to The Glen for some fun.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXl1mXI_400&t=184s |

Mike I am going to commit what is probably on this site a major faux pas.....that is to comment on your driving ........ your line sucks.... I mentioned it once from another of your track videos...which I do enjoy watching.. You response was that it was a good passing line....bull pucky !..Because you tend to gain on the cars ahead of you by diving in on an early apex line ...that is killing you throttle feed , and they drive away from you on exit every time ., even less powerful ones...tracks have a fast line period !...nuance adjustments are for car handling traits , and driver style when those options are not slower early apexing is almost always slower..!..You line at the kink , is really a good one , better that those ahead of you in the video....but why are you lifting ? ...your car is settled , and you are in a race.....I hope this wasn't offensive, I used to be an instructor and sometimes its hard to keep my mouth shut...
