  I have to admit, I haven't pursued GPL as perhaps I should, even
Eldred's times were far below mine.  But his recent sucess spurred me
into putting more laps into just Monza to try and figure out where I
stink...well perhaps I should say, where I don't stink..a much smaller
number.  Started Brking earlier and holding the downshifts til the car
is good and settled and I've cut over a second and half off my pb.
  Still have a ways to go just to get to the awful stage, but this is
the most progress I've made since I junked my old T2 wheel.
Thanks Eldred and all you who helped him...and me!

Yeah, same here.  I followed the advice given to Eldred and have managed
to come down to 1:30.27 at Monza.  Still a long way to go, but I can now
do consistent, comfortable 1:31.xx laps without crashing.  Times on other
tracks have come down as well, especially at Spa.

Thanks Eldred.

Never argue with an idiot.  He brings you down to his level, then beats you
with experience...

Hehe - You're welcome, Bob.  But, I'm just one driver bemoaning my slow
times...
Now, if I could just get better at the OTHER tracks...  So far in my
championship season, I have 1 win(monza), 1 6th place(Watkins), and NO other
top 12 finishes...
Mostly 13-15 place...  More practice is DEFINITELY needed.  Hey, I'm off until
next year...<g>
