    awesome vid. Shouldn't the porsche be pulling away? You were driving well and keeping up though.

      They don't pull away when there's a clusterfuck in front of them.

      Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

          Wow, I'd be super pissed if DEs down here were like that. Do the staging personnel not understand the concept of spacing cars out so you dont spend half of the session in traffic?

          As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
          You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

              I dont know why everyone badmouths them. Granted Ive only been to one of their DEs but it was very well run. Signed up for the one on the 14th but Im on the lame waiting list.

              Speaking of which, you ever make it up to MSR?

                Nope, simply because I can get in on workdrives at TWS. I cornerworked for Driver's Edge, and they don't really seem to consider safety as a top priority, and I've seen upwards of 60 cars on course on the 2.9. Green/Blue FTL!

                Driver's Edge caters to the weathly NDA. TWS MSC events are cheaper and IMO, much safer. PCA also has great, smooth-running events.

                  it all works out...usually. The drivers/cars sought themselves out. Some groups are better than others...Lime Rock is small......trains happen now and again........
