My run with the golf and lawson

Ruben took the same lines as me after the chicane. :P
well as an internet pro driver point of view here, ruben's line entering the chicane could use some more work. i guess what is considered the safest line is to get situated on from the long straight then edge over to the right side entering the chicane. jeff already lines himself up on the right side, and when i had the instructor ride along he was telling me the same thing. that way you are going straight down into the first of the esses. of course every driver is different and there are probably a few other ways to take the esses but we all just need more track time. the problem is it's blind until you're over the crest and you can get into a lot of trouble if you dive in from the left then all of a sudden run out of room. it's probably a no-no for bringing this up, but SV now lines cones entering the chicane to help guide your line in (and potentially prevent another 2 rollovers occurring in the same day.)
there's a lot more vid that needs to be uploaded though. i would hope for a lot more of tommy's blessings cause there is 3 or 4 instances that could be classified as "questionable" blocking and lines. instant replay, yo...

my concerns are about the attitude upon the discussion at the track of this incident. If any one believes that my attitude was rude, then I apologize.

Just keep in mind everyone. Ferdie started at the same time as us, and I am not even talking about track events. I'm talking karting Ferdie is fast but his car is just way damn ugly
HAHA, I just saw this. Anyhow, Im going to keep bringing it out so you can suffer.
See you at big willow.
