Actually it is just the fastest line in the outer loop (DE vs Racing). There is more camber to the inside and the track falls off 2/3s of the way around. The best way to beat someone while passing is to put them wide and take a foot or two out of the inside instead of staying tight when racing. The outer loop carries the same speed going tight, so go with the shorter distance. The DP cars do take T6 very tight, but I think your line was good for your car about 2/3rds out ( ask another 944 driver for another opinion). The turn that will generate the most for you is T11. After barrelling through T10, everyone backs off a very fast turn entering the front straight. Again, I learned this from watching the Pros go through there, so it was not intuitive. I picked up about 5mph by following this line.

Did you guys watch the IRL/CART/whatever is is now race at the Glen yesterday? I timed the winner at 1:32 on a non-flat-out lap. With those guys, every turn-in is way early and stay on the inside all the way around. Bob, what do you think?

I saw some of the race. Ground effects........ I particularly liked the carnage during the yellow laps.
Milka Dounut Head was hiding in her car after taking out Jr the 4th, while he threw the steering wheel across the track. The entire race made being the amatuers we are look very accomplished.

Hey, Todd. I thought you would appreciate a rain race on slicks and not rain tires. Glen race in June.........
