Zone 2 VIR 2008

Jack,

Looks like you guys had fun.   From what I have learned at VIR from a couple of extra visits:

T1, a little earlier, trail harder to the apex, less brakes, but trailing to the apex for gaining speed.  Left hook, braking all the way to the apex, ending up mid track into snake.  Pause throttle exiting snake , then full bore.  Uphill, two entries possible, full throttle stay right, slight breathe, and just miss curbing, no brakes, very slight throttle breath prior to crest to get grip and rotation.  Option 2,  hard gass to first hill crest, cut off the inside corner, similar to what were doing, but faster entry.  Southbend, way too late, 2 car lengths earlier, tap and go like T10 at the Glen, car will end up much wider, alot wheel release to avoid spinning.   Back straight, don't brake until the bottom of the hill, trail all the way to the downhill inside corner.  Hogpen, earlier full throttle, the only place on the track that camber will catch you, similar to the Glen entering the essess.  

Nice driving for first time there.  I will post a vid from the race next week and see if it all comes together.
