Did you run the south course or the full course?  How did you like it?

Too bad you couldn't be there Jack; we had an absolute blast!  

North Course Monday and South Course Tuesday.  I liked the South Course better; I felt more of a flow.  The mini-corkscrew was awesome!  The North Course is like 90% decreasing radius!   :o


Aim for the oak tree!

 I've only been there once and it's a beautiful place. But I didn't realize there was so much hard stuff around to hit if you had a problem. Guardrails, wooden flagmans stand,  chain link fance, stack of tires on the corner. Are they gearing more toward cars there or is that an optical illusion.

The mini-corkscrew rocks. Most fun I've ever had on a bike was VIR. The double apex around the Oak tree is a trip once you get used to it.

The oak tree is pretty freaky but I just took it easy around there.  I think my favorite memory from the South course will be when one of the Cornerspeed instructors and I were flying up the hill then braking like crazy for T1.  I made the turn; he didn't!  Luckily there is additional pavement beyond the cones and he just went flying through.  LOL!

When did you run with the CRA?  That looks like a 2003 sticker.

You are correct.  I ran HWSS and Supertwins at MAM on the 12th-13th.

Thanks Kevin.  I've decided that windscreens definitely perform a valuable aerodynamic function.   ;) ;D
