And @jblmr2,

That's what second place always says!

No walls, but I got to briefly drive behind two mobile Traegers that drew everyone's wrath after blowing up and bringing out the black flag.

I laughed this morning listening to rubber strips flailing in the wheel whells for a minute like you mentioned.

Detail underway, everything looks good. These are stout little cars.

Way too clean. Still have your plate?

Great pics, glad you had fun.

Ended up buying a few pictures as well, some great wallpapers for my various computers.

The day was awesome! I really needed about 3 instruction laps, and I was good to go after that. My license plate was getting loose from the vibration so I just took it off.

Time to mod for next season. Cooling, cooling and more cooling lol. Oh and BBK.

Nice! Really like the first shot using the FIA curb on a tricky turn with camber change.

Well I might have to buy some pics really like this one too http://cwhitephoto.zenfolio.com/p287...59eec#h6b59eec

Good to see Charles White walking through the woods for new perspectives like T6.

I was looking at that one too Brandon. Cool to see 3 86's grouped up. Was that the first session?

I have to agree, this guy does a really good job. I'll purchase a few tonight.

If there is anything that ORP taught me this year, it's how to deal with camber change!

My biggest lesson there was learning how circuit elevation changes affects our cars.

In what manner?

[torqdork]

Tendency to either understeer or oversteer. Depending on the slope, in some places I could use extra throttle to take the corner faster than usual with gravity fed grip, others needed maintenance or trailing throttle to stay planted. Then +/- camber changes all that. I need more seat time, plenty more speed to be had at ORP.

OT: I think that's why T6 at PIR is so challenging. It's a combination of camber and elevation change that can upset the car so easily. Slow in, fast out and gentle throttle really seem to help there.
