  1. T11 really is THE big balls corner at mid ohio..the crest can easily catch you off guard if you take it the quick way and have your car spin

     

    I'm glad I could help a bit...I'm no expert

     

    Remember that patience, at the track is an extremely important skill

     

    Autobahn Country Club - South Course has a corner called "Patience"...it's the only corner with a name there and I discovered for myself why when I went there in sept 2011

    it is the one important corner on the track and it's imperative that one wait for turn-in because an early turn-in will absolutely kill your speed onto the back straight

     

    this is me driving there

    at 1:10 you can see just how far right you have to be before turning left for Patience rather late....turning in early is especially bad here since you will just understeer and lose tons of speed

    at 3:00 was better for me

     

     

    patience is what makes you fast in slow corners

     

    Slow hands in the fast stuff and fast hands in the slow stuff - Some wise motherfucker

  2. Rich, Thanks for having us out to bring her back up to spec. I wish I would have taken a 50/50 shot of the roof half done as it really showed how dramatic the difference was.

    I wish I had too......it was a severe difference

     

    I almost bought that car. Came out great!

     

    you sure it's the same? where was it for sale exactly (what street)?

  3. Do you live around Sawmill?

    I must see you 1-2 times a weekend on sawmill road, but always going the other direction.

    Don't want to be the HONKer.

     

    Such a timeless clean car.

     

    yes...maybe a 2mn walk to home depot

     

    thanks for the compliment but Andy is the miracle worker :)

     

    You usually in which car though?
