Yeah, because the driver was trying to extract the fastest time from the car, not exhibit it's handling characteristics.
It's very hard to see car balance in a video, you can make the exact same car look like an understeering pig or a drift machine if you know what you're doing. Edit: Went back and looked at my videos the last time I had a co-driver, my old man thought my car was far too loose, watch the video and he under-drove it and the car looks pretty damn neutral, my video from the same day shows me leaning into a bit of understeer, my run was about half a second faster and absolutely nothing to write home about in terms of where an STX car should be. If I only had access to one video and wasn't behind the wheel I'd make totally opposite assumptions on how to improve the car vs. what I think I need to do.

I plan to -- my goal from now on is to get myself/my car in a position to be accelerating through the apex cone on every turn. Never still be on the brakes (/lifting/otherwise slowing down) or be turning in at or past the apex cone. Last edited by H1C; 05-27-2018 at 01:14 AM. |

I admit that I do have a little harder time with higher speed courses. I'd also like to put some blame my very used tires...yes...that's what it was... |

Back to back events at the Seneca Army Depot. Back half of the course was very tough.
[ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fFPIzvI3i8[/ame] Day 2 they opened up the course. I'm hoping the tour is similar to this course except for the wide open start.Was way late on the slalom before the finish. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FJWRL7lX8o[/ame] |

Had a great time at the Finger Lakes Champ Tour, great people, great drivers and perfect weather! Definitely have more work to do as a driver.
Day 1 [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3UoOp2Nn_4[/ame] Day 2, Wound up having to sit on my first run. Really messed up my lines in the sweepers and turn around. |
