Ron, Steve, and Scott,

Good explaination Steve and Scott. That is pretty much the same way I do it (void of the 7000 RPM's), Also, on my first lap or two (especially on a new track) I will brake between 500 and 600 feet just to make sure how the car handles at that time and get my bias adjusted if necessary.

Steve, maybe you and some of the Crankoids can make it to Road America this year. I won't be making the Glen this year but maybe next (new engine). The BB does have enough torque to drive through some of these corners but you better be comfortable with some drifting and know where the edge is at.

This thread was just to generate some race chatter. Unfortunately, with RA and R&G overlaping I just lost one of my planned weekend events.

Clois
