Yep...I had two of the more experienced track people I know spin in front of me after the very fast downhill chicane. I had just let them bye on the short straight....one of the only two passing areas.

I had a feeling in my gut...no it wasn't the tekillya from the night before ....that they were going in too hot.....I was right and was able to back off of the go pedal and did not follow them into the infield.

The lead driver actually spun went off and recrossed to the other side. Quite a dust cloud....I was lucky to have not tee boned him.

Howard,

Do you know when that video was shot ? Early or late in the day ?

Any idea who was Jim's instructor ??

Before lunch, not sure who was instructing. But you can see the 'fudge factor' on that very forgiving track.

yeah, he was all over the place, looks like he was trying to stay *off* the line instead of finding it ...

Thanks Howard.. just making sure it wasnt shot at the end of the day when Jim should have had "the line" nailed. I wheeled a few cars around those Yok's Jim was running and they stick very well for a street tire.

I haven't forgotten that flame he started awhile back either....

Mike, please refresh my memory. I'd like to see the thread you're referring to. I don't recall starting any flames. You're either confusing me with someone else or my memory has failed me (definitely a possibility). If I'm wrong I am prepared to stand corrected.
