it was nice to get back to pitt race with confidence

some may recall that last year was my first time at pitt race, my first time on track in a 981 cayman s, and fresh after a crash at summit point out of turn #10 in a 987 cayman s that resulted in a total loss

last time at pitt race, my head was not completely in it most of the weekend

jim and laura suggested that i follow them some laps in black-red combine sessions on sunday

playing tag with jim helped me get my head back in the game

this time around the car was more track ready, seats, harness, better wheels and tires

i was ready, but rusty from the shutdown

it was a lot more fun, except for the rain

i did not like the covid-19 social distance thing, missing the social end of the event

also, all weekend, i was missing the students, and new people

very sad that we did not have any with us this weekend, and hope we can get back to that as soon as possible

Another spin in question. Quite graceful if I might add too.

Based on the lateness of counter steer, this was caused by a broken @$$ sensor. I have had that happen.

Looks like he was just went in too hot to me. Wheels are pointing directly left but nothing happened. Probably trying to break the SPB DE track record.
