Who's going to Thunder Hill later this month? I'll be there taking pictures on the 26th. I just ordered a new 70-300mm lens and looking forward to taking some track pictures with it.

As requested...

get on the throttle earlier; you time it so that you have boost when you're straightening out of every corner.

Sunrise - Turn in earlier. Use the berm. Track out fully. Gas earlier.

Buttonhook - Hug the entire turn. Get ont he gas as soon as you turn in.

Cotton corners - Turn in earlier. You overturn between the 2nd and 3rd turn. Go straight for the 3rd turn's apex. Don't lift once you get on the gas.

Grapevine - Turn earlier. Stay WOT.

Club Corner - Stay WOT. turn earlier. Set up all the way right on exit to set up for the left.

Bus stop - Brake less

Riverside - Start wider, tuck in as you apex.

Left kink - stay WOT

Lost hill - Don't miss that apex.

Sweeper - Track out much earlier to set up for the exit.

Esses - Stay WOT, shift to 5th before the final left.

Sunset - WOT earlier. Turn in smoother.

I saw this quote today on Forbes.com, and it seemed like a very fitting one to sum up the Buttonwillow experience.

Our bravest and best lessons are not learned through success, but through misadventure.
