low 8 mins at the Ring but when you crack 9 mins for the first time you feel
nothing but elation.
I've tried for the past few days to lower my old time of 9:12 . Today I did
a 9:16 , a 9:15 and just pipped my old time to clock 9:12.37 . On my last
run I finally did a 8:59.43 having smacked the barriers just before the pit
straight . It's marginal I'll admit but a sub 9 is a sub 9 .
Eldred , if you're still on that 9:00.60 then I honestly feel for you after
negociating those 174 turns. That's pretty cruel luck to be so close but as
many here have said , you'll have to start using that left foot to brake.
Is it just me or do you also find your body temp getting warmer and warmer
as you're driving . The tension seems to make my heart race and my body cook
. Heaven knows what it must be like for those F1 guys sitting just ahead of
the engine and trying to keep the car on the limit for 1 1/2 hrs.
Happy driving amigos
