oh man.....

that's not your average HPDE..

At the 26ish mark - tires hot - drivers clearly getting tired and less consistent - You really see the difference in the two styles. Joe is more aggressive at every turn but Oli is very fast out of the apex. Just after the first pass/re-pass has Oli executing the most perfect long *** drift on that long sweeper to the short straight (sorry I don't know RA). You can see the side of his car the whole way and that forces the last ditch dive bomb a lap later.++

The video in both cars shut down before the end of the race. This was all the footage that Joe and Oli provided me with.

Thanks,

Don't know what i'm doing at the 2 but at the 3 I'm doing a buck 50 according to the data recorder...but that's not racing, just a track event.

You run a T1 car at Road America in HPDE? Why not sign up for some racing fun!
