Anyone in that race, sorry for standing the back wheel up and having to run off into the cones of turn 1 on the start. I was on the inside and got cut off in a bad spot going into t1 and stabbed the brakes a little too hard.  :banghead: Overall it was my fault though. Im glad nobody tboned me and I wasn't the cause of anybody falling down.

I saw you coming in to turn 1 out of the corner of my eye a little to hot. I checked up. Glad you or nobody went down. That could have been a nasty crash.

DEVINC

Ya I was way too hot. I wanted to stay with that front group bad since I started from the last row of the grid. Now I know how bad it is to try to take T1 with that speed/line. I will say, i do not like T1.  I'm glad you didn't get caught up in anything bad.

Yeah no worries, thats racing. You going to Homestead for the last race of the season?

DEVINC

I plan on going to Homestead. I want to maybe do a track day there in between. What # / bike are you? How did the rest of the race go for you...

My number is 134 I have an 06 r6. Its black and silver. The rest of the race was good. I think im giong to do a track day at jennings in November. What did you end of finishing in that race

DEVINC

I think like third to last is what i finished... thanks to my T1 trick. I haven't looked at the results yet as I was not too thrilled to find out. There was another guy that I was battling with for that position. I think his bike was orange maybe? He was pretty good on the brakes at the end of the back straight. I got him good there on one lap but then the next one he got me better in the same spot but the next lap he had to pick it up and run off in that spot due to too late braking (i'm assuming). At least there was somebody to run with after my screw up and I wasn't alone the whole time.

wow. Now I see how bad it seemed. I realize my mistake. Too fast (for me right now) for as close to the inside as I was. I won't do that again. Thanks for posting the vid. It helped really see my mistake.  :cheers:

Once again, I'm glad that silly move didn't affect anyone else.

firefightergarcia

see you in Homestead...

there's a trackday on the 29th of Nov @ HMS. I'll be there.
