BTW - my problem was both lines and bottle! Lines are getting better, as is the bottle - little at a time. Funny thing is if the lines are really good, and the smoothness is there, the speed sort of happens anyway. I did a balls out lap last time at Donny, did 1m25. I did a casual, good lines lap on Monday, did 1m25! It didn't feel fast. If I can keep my lines good as I up the pace, I guess I can get closer to Ed's great times.
I just love the improvement to be honest. It isn't often at this age you get to learn something new and do well at it. Fun, fun , fun!
I think the worst aspect for me is I hate being overtaken - don't mind it when I am practising lines, but hate it when I think I am going quickly -just reminds me I am not quick at all, particularly if the car is slower/less capapable. I also hate ####ers in expensive cars who treat the track as their private race track with no regard for people who maybe on their first track day. I like to hunt those people down and embarass them - and if I can't I get Ed to go out and embarrass them! Either way, they need to learn a lesson!
Ooohh, I am ranting...! Chill...
