yeah no room to pass after the esses and it's not like that rabbit had an insane amount of hp to make that pass. (ahem...GT3 cup car...) the red miata was dictating the pace of that particular pack. mistakes were made but it's driver attitude that really sets all this off. my g/f missed the black flags and she got bumped down because of it. she did say it was too much for her and with that said, you didn't need to be calling her an idiot after the incident. it would be appreciated if you could show some mutual respect as a friend and maybe also as a driver about the situation. it would be like asking lisa or connie to go into advanced group and not expecting them to be over their heads about it. i can't speak for why she missed the flags, but it's what happened, a bunch of advanced n00bs slowing down the pro drivers.

On a lighter note, there's no reason for name calling or belittling as track events are self learning experiences to hone our own driving skills since we're all not Michael Schumachers. 
I'd have to say though getting used to the fast pace of advanced group is an eye opener, as its on an entirely new level vs driving in intermediate. As long as you're aware of your surroundings, driving with pros is a little more relieving as they're actions can be more predictable. Knowing where they are in relation to your position on the track is required otherwise you become unpredictable. So you guys need to quit your whining and practice some more.

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
