    motel 6 is probably less stringent on parking lot late night tech sessions

      The chubby at the front desk has no interest in stopping you from leaving jack stand marks in the pavement.

        At Putnam there's only the 3-4 shift on the straight and then back into 3rd after turn 1, so you're not doing a whole lot of shifting anyways. It would still be good fun in an auto.

          some people use 4th all the way around ;) except for 7.

          but yeah, i typically only shift once during a lap. (riding top of 3rd or staying in fourth most of the lap)

            I have done that track in both auto and stick cars. Manual FTW, but still quite fun with the autotragic.

              If I get the turn one right, I can stay on 4th all the way till turn 7. If I mess up turn one, then I just leave it in 3rd gear. Btw, this is with Toyo RA1's, Bilsteins, Eibachs, 3.73 and JimC's - your mileage/speed might vary :D

                    Approximately how much speed do you carry through 1 and 4?

                      I stayed home - my duaghter had an all-star baseball game today - althought hey did not win, she played well. Much more important than a DE.
