I doubt Britney Spears has a smooth highway, she shit out two kids and the pics of her with no panties make me think she has a sloppy hole.

That was the place. It was actually very cool except for the guy in front of me ran wide and slowed up, then he started to come back to the line just as I was drifting into his path. That part was pretty messed up.
Now I just need to learn how to control and repeat the slide. It was pretty cool while it was happening.

It's funny that you mention those turns cause those where the ones i was trying to work on.
I know if you don't have T1 right you mess up 2 and 3. I was trying to turn in later on 1 so that i was in good position for 2 and 3 but i don't think i was going in late enough. Turn 6 last year i was going into it in 2nd this year i was going through in 3rd carrying more speed. I didn't think i was missing the apex on that one i thought i was hitting right on :dunno:
Thanks for the info and complements

I like the clip with the sound better. Just my 2 cents, my line through 1, 6, 7 I hit the apex and my knee is over the white and green rumble strips.
It looks like in the vid on the 2nd lap going into 1 you target fixate on the guy infront of you and you follow his line all the way through 1. I don't really late apex 1. If you hit the apex in 1 with your knee over the rumble strip and drive up the hill, staying just to the inside of the seam going up the hill, you'll be perfect for turn 2. When you get to the top of the hill, you should be all the way left, next to the rumble strips and that will set you up perfect for 2. BTW turns 2,3 and down through the esses and turn 5 looked good.
The key with turn 1, is to get on the gas as soon as you can, and if you late apex it, you can't get on throttle until later. Really the only turns I late apex at Road A is 7 and maybe alittle in the new turn 12.
I know this was just a trackday and not a race, but just FYI, in a race if you leave a foot or two open on the inside of a turn, you'll get passed all day.
I hope this helps, it's kinda hard to type this with out showing you at the track.
