Wanna do one for me at the same time?

I really miss WGI.

Hahaha that cracked me up. NJMP is a fun track. But that definitely must have been a nuisance being behind him. On a side note, what on earth is that rear wing doing? Generating lift? Lol

Shiv - following up on our conversation about driving Palmer clockwise, here are some videos

Here is a group of 911s

and this is me driving Jeff's car waaay before they completed the track

In my personal opinion, the track flows better running counter-clockwise and is also a lot safer.

Wow, totally messes with your head. Made me start thinking about other tracks in reverse. Can you imagine doing the esses at WGI but going downhill instead of up? You would be frickin flying by the bottom!!!

SCDA just announced Club Motorsports for Sept. 7-8.

Unlikely that I can go, but all should try to get there. Aashish and I had a chance to preview the track last year. Video taken with wives in the car.

Nice article from Ashley Freiburg

https://www.bmwcca.org/roundel/readi...hands-and-feet

reminds me of the time Lee Carpentier said driving a car on track is all about weight management on those four contact patches

Does anybody know? Do we need our own numbers for the Rud Motorsports event?
