Yeah - I didn't REALLY appreciate it until I watched Warr's vid of the same track, and saw (from the inboard camera) how that turn approaches

Hmm, yeah, if you watch both vids, you get a good sense of that turn from 2 angles (in and out). I don't do that turn anything like Paul. He flicks the rear a little, points the nose at the tower, and hammers it, then grazes right by the tire wall. In my NASA events, they put cones down that push us out away from the tires, but I still don't do a flick, although I do end up 4-wheel sliding most of the way around. The one where I went off wasn't a good indication of how I normally do it, haha!

I would have to do a back to back with Hoosiers on the road course to expand at all (maybe someday ) and find out how they compare over a flying lap and a 20-30 minute session.

I think Warr has potential, it will be fun to see how fast he can go

WOW praise from PG!!
