Wait, I can race TT cuz I can half-azz heel toe?

Sign me up!!! For last place...

I always thought smooth heel-n-toe was kinda a requirement for moving up in DE. I know it's in the NASA handbook... I think everyone has an awkward shift here and there. When I rode with u last year Nate I don't remember anything about your shifting standing out as an issue.

I should have rode with u this weekend, or u with me... Wtf bro. We need to get your pops out too. Haha

it seems a lot of the issue was drivetrain slop. i managed to get a stuffer engine mount in before this weekend and the shifting was light years better all around, could finally get a good smooth downshift. dont think i wound up dipping into the 35's, but i believe i clocked a couple 36's. van blarcom said in the classroom that the average pace of the group seemed to be 40's.


ive had so much life/family/work **** going on lately i really just wanted to go out and drive this weekend. just glad the car was continued its trend of being drama free...my windshield didnt survive my last session tho.

i dont actually think my dad will ever go out, or the might be a very very small chance. my girlfriend on the other hand will get in the car in an instant.

i need to look into some potential coaching for next year.
