Forget what I said about the brakes at Texas.  In that round, I had the
wrong setup loaded.  Hell, it wasn't even a Texas Setup :)

Braking is fine with the Texas Fast setup, though you'll rarely need them.

Also, Tire wear looks pretty good!  Much better than I thought it would be.
I did a 30 lap run, and while it did pick up a bit of a push the temps were
good.  I think those that know how to manage tires well will, again, be at
the front at the end of this one.

Texas is as boring as every other non-Vegas trioval:

Here's a nice lap summary:

Put gas all the way down.
Release gas when dotted lines end.
Work car down to apron.
Put gas all the way down.
Drift to the wall.
Release gas when dotted lines end.
Work car down to apron.
Put gas all the way down.
Drift to the wall.

Repeat until you want to burn the ***ing track down.

I don't really care for square-ovals at all.  I also don't understand the
theory behind them...

I can race them, they just aren't as fun to me as, say, Bristol, Dover,
Marty, North Carolina, etc...  Tracks that have very different characters to
them.
