Slits get the trophy for "quickest to figure this AX stuff out". His first session he was all over the place, sliding and spinning, looked like a maytag washer. Kept the corner workers out of breath. Second practice session he was smoother, more in control, but still an occasional spin or slide. By the third practice session he was smooth and under control but still aggressive, pushing it but staying in the limits of the car. He seemed to keep the suspension from getting unsettled even while tossing the car. His times were pretty consistant, right around 50.5 IIRC. He went from completely out of control to "yep I got it figured out" in a matter of hours. I was impressed with the improvement. |

Gud observation Slits, the horn does blow in a spin, for some more often than others. Here's a test for the rest of us, you have to answer as quickly as possible: You are hauling butt around a course, right on the edge, and your winsdhield wipers come on. Quick now, which way do you move the stalk to turn them off? Ha ha, it's a trick question. You don't turn them off quickly, you do what I did. You fiddle with them for the remainder of the lap turning them on and off several times, trying to hold concentration but not doing a very good job of it, and then finally turn them off as you cruise through the pits as all your friends point and laugh. |
