You still look fast for 1:03.4! Couple of comments, you were short shifting on the begining of the course, not getting enough speed out of the corners. My car was carrying a little more speed onto the first long straight - my car drifted all the way out to the cones on the left ( I had to drive the car back to the right) and you were all the way to the right early. On the way back you locked up the brakes before the slalom, I lifted for a split second in that spot (no brakes) and then was right back on the power in 3rd gear . Do you notice you go faster in the last section of tight stuff then during the first section because you have your engine up in higher rpm's? Maybe the first section would have gone faster if you attacked it with similar speed and aggressiveness. Granted my car is less powerful, but I was on the power in some of the sections where you were lifting or braking. Couple of places you could have straightened out corners a little more as well.
I'd say biggest thing is use the brakes a little less and get up into higher rpms coming out of corners. I need to get me one of those video contraptions so we can compare runs. |
