T7 @ L is downhill at entry and in a DE situation always entered from as far right as possible. There is also camber at the apex and not much curbing on exit. The exit is also slightly uphill.

T5 @ TB is flat all the way thru from entry to exit. Most people enter from about the middle (depending on how fast you came thru T4). There is no camber at the apex, just a lot of raised curbing that you can use. The exit also has a lot of curbing, which I always use.

On paper them might look similar geometrically, but in reality they both have a different approach.

Oil out of the ground is some nasty ish, thats why mother earth keeps it burried. By your logic the DeepWater Horizon accident in the gulf was no big deal.
Aspirin is also good for you, dump a truck load in a lake and see how many things will live.

True...but I still think the classic line is tricky in LT5.

T5 at thunder is more of an acute angle. I give up a little speed on T4 to set myself up to far right as I can for T5 to have better exit for for the long run to T6. But that's just me. I see a lot of people carry more speed through T4 and enter T5 in the middle or on the right. I guess that's better for race to protect your line. McIntosh showed me his race line and TT line.

@ Pete & Chu, I emailed RTA to see if we can do TT while in the DE groups. You two would be in Street AWD and I would be in Street RWD.

Pete, I know you didn't mention anything about wanting to have your laps timed, but I made the decision for you.

Grillo dont have stock turbo either. He has modded stock turbo with evo 9 house. If modded stock turbo was legal in street class, then my FP red would qualify modded stock turbo.
