haha, now I remember. VaG asked me if I knew what you were doing, as he thought you bailed during the session and went and drove the skidpad

I'm badass because I took it out in the rain! Or maybe just dumb

Skinny tires, 195/65-R15. Same with the T3 event.

No, the spin was on RA1s. I switched to the others after that session.

[QUOTE=rs911t;367414]T3 is a bad place to need to lift


In all seriousness, great job of just driving straight and not trying to immediately get back on track!

Thanks Mark. Maybe this is a teaching opportunity

I spent all weekend at T3 doing the pass and tuck behind the car that went by. My speed and turn in point in this particular instance is basically the same as all the others. It's interesting to compare frames and see how that breathe of the throttle changed the car's trajectory.

Here's after turn in approaching the apex. Note car and steering wheel position (and that I hold the wheel tighter when I'm on another car's bumper)





And here's track out. Normally the car ends up on the curb, but not in the gravel
