I'm assuming PDC is about the same as Speed Ventures, just don't have a timer and it won't be considered racing? It'll be considered a driving school?

 

Of course u understeered off u were driving an evo.

Sorry about the crash. The only advice I can add is that when you find you're understeering off, unwind the steering wheel and brake in a straight line, you can kill a lot of speed before running into anything.

 

you didn't do it wrong at all....

you had an accident in a controlled environment. WAY BETTER than doing it on a street...which is why track days exist.

 

You're now painfully aware of this, but for other peoples' benefit: don't rush to get back onto the track after an off. It's really easy to lose control getting back onto the track, especially if you're still moving at a decent clip. (I also know from personal experience, having stuffed one of Skip Barber's school cars into a wall at Laguna Seca getting back on in a hurry after an off.)

The best way to reenter the track is as straight as possible, with minimal steering and throttle input. And if you're carrying a lot of mud with you, stay off of the racing line.

 

not only re-enter, but...if possible, exiting as well

 

Yeah, i did, but i tried to save it. I definitely drove it off the track in a straight line. The issue with infineon (especially at turn 10)is there is just so little run-off room. Once I saw the wall fast approaching I tried to get back on the track. I was successful doing a little dirt drifting, but getting back on the pavement didn't have the desired effect!

In retrospect I was probably screwed the whole time. Once I got in the dirt just braking hard once I was straight would of probably been best, but it happened fast. I probably left the track at 90 or so and was in the wall a couple hundred yards later...couldn't of taken long.

 

I didn't mean to 'rush' back on, but that wall on the exit of ten is very intimidating rushing up to kill you on your left as you bounce through the dirt! I was trying to get back on straight, but it happened too fast. To be honest I can't remember which way the wheel was turning. it must of been point towards the wall some what. I was trying to get it straight. I kind of ran out time i think.

 

Oh well live and learn. I got a do over in this case with minimal to no injuries. Now to get back on the horse.

 

yeah it doesn't take long in T10. The corner does eat a lot of cars.

 

The primary problem is obviously your extremely small pictures.

On a serious note, sorry about your car and glad you're ok. So does this mean you're not going to track the Evo any more or just roll the dice with it?
