Lessons from other regions/sponsors?

Hank,

Thanks for the insights. It is always good to get views from folks with different skill levels. I think Mike covered most of your post but I will add one thing.

[size=2]In your second paragraph you talk about the 20 second variance and how it's startling to the slower cars.  That's exactly why they are in the lower groups.  Because they get startled.  The higher run groups have had to deal with that and aren't caught off guard. 

 

I participated @ the Glen during an RTR event that combined upper run groups as Mike mentioned. I thought it was the best time I ever had on a track. I feel my field of vision and awareness that I have learned going through the ranks really paid off during that session. There were a lot of car and the speed differences were great. I passed as many folks thats passed me. If you look into an old RTR forum post, you will see other folks feedback from that session. It was a great time and as safe as our sport can be. See you @ the track.[/size]
