Sandor,
Yeah - I grew up in Buffalo, NY. My 1st car was a '71 Camaro V8 that I couldn't afford snow tires for. I got very good at driving sideways
However, even with that experience, my first track event was quite an eye opener. I felt I had time to react in the snow. I was completely caught off guard by how fast a mistake was punished by my '91 Toyota MR2 on the track! Plus, I suspect almost all of my snow based oversteer conditions were caused by over application of the throttle, not lifing in a corner.
I appreciate the feedback and ideas being presented here. Keep them coming.
I want to make our DE program the best it can me. We're starting from a position of strength, but that doesn't mean we can't improve on what we have.
Take care,
Jack
