definitely a difference in the two events. Nationals course(s) looked really fast with those sweepers.

Nicely done.

I think I'll stick with tracks that have no cones! I'm sure I'd get lost on alot of these courses!

Great Job out there. Can't tell cause I can't see the steering wheel but the car looks pushy from the video.

*edit* just watched it a couple more times, Your having to wait on the car to get into the throttle. More rear spring would be my guess.... or less front rebound. But it appears that as you roll into the throttle (and weight transfers rear) grip is reduced to much off the front and you can't commit to throttle early enough in the corner. Just an Idea..... I could be completely wrong. My thought process is more rear spring will help fight the weight transfer to the rear or less rebound will keep the fronts from lifting the pressure off the tire as quick. I can hear you want to get in the throttle early but your in and out of the throttle because she just won't do it. Just an idea.
