Most of the time I start up the car 5 minutes early and drive around the paddock to make sure everything else is warmed up. I have a LSD too.  |
Pulling into the pits is a pretty good idea. I normally start my car 15 minutes early, get it warm, get the pedal dance done, get my harness on (ish), get to grid, start my camera, get my helmet on, get the harness tight... then I'm ready. Those minutes seems to tick by pretty fast.
