I did go back out, just with @MyRx instead. Hahahah. I understand though. Too much pressure having the life of the Pres in your hands. Lol

I warned some of you about the brakes here. I melted the paint off the outside of my front Hawks at Seca. They kept working all day long for me though.

I really wish I could have been there. Happy to see all of the pics though.

Yeah melted the paint my winmax w3s that day. Made sure to circle the parking lot after a couple laps after each session afterwards.

All this talk of spinning led me to thinking, what the hell do you do if you spin in a AT? No clutch to dump into neutral. Do you just stand on the brakes and hope they lock or what? Lol

@WillRacer1jz - was that you behind the BMW when I spun? Got any video of my spin from that session?

I think it was the third session and it was my first lap out. Though I went out a little late so you might have done 1-2 laps already at that point. Thanks!

86 - @RehabJeff86



Both day at MRLS - my mentors kept advising me to minimize my steering angle and instead use more slip angle to roate the vehicle and maximize grip plus get on gas earlier - look!! @CSG Mike and @CSG David - i did it here @T10!!!! Minimum steering angle and my car has rotated almost straight before the apex and full throttle already!! I need to work on this more!!

Thank you @Pwolf for this great shot!!

Yup Yup! I started using the white flag as my queue to really cruise the course.

Still needed to take a tour of the paddock.

Bro...you need more than W3s at MRLS (the track that is notorious for destroying brakes).
