So here it is 12 hours into my day off, and I only managed to shave a sec
off Mexico, 7/10ths at Mosport........(used GH's 85/45setup)...the whole
point of this day was to get that *** 9:11 Ring time to respectable
levels....oh yes and Spa to 3:20...neither happened....if ever a day felt
wasted, this would have to be it!!
Im sure some of you understand, but I really thought that a day off, all to
myself would set new lows, (timewise)....was I ever wrong!

Ditto.  Had a week off and wanted to improve my 'ring time.  Nope, didn't
happen.

Oh well, I have two more weeks of holiday time...  as the saying goes: "The
first step is admitting you have a problem."

Yeah, but it takes hours and hours... Look at it this way, you shaved off 12
hours all in one clip that you would have had to put in somewhere along the
way. So maybe now all you have left is another 12. The point is you're
always moving forward. Heh... At least that's what I keep telling myself!

Oh...I gotta problem alright.... with Rings...... and I thought Spas were
supposed to be relaxing?
Well at least you guys dont make me feel too alone.....thanks...but I still
feel like I wasted a day, I guess I am just at that damn plateau we all hear
about...dont get me started on trying to get from a 130:42 to a 129:00 at
Monza...or the Holy Grail of a 130:00 at Silverstone or...etc etc etc...man
does my shfting hand hurt about now...so is this what "car"pal tunnel
syndrome is all about?

If I could shave a second off my mexico time and 7/10ths off my mosport
time, I would be a VERY happy puppy.  Time doesn't come easy for me anymore.
And when I do find time, it is always a tenth of a second or maybe 2.  But
sometimes I get lucky and I get a breakthrough in my driving at a track and
I can pick up maybe a half a second...but I havn't figured out how that
happens and it hasn't happened to me for about 2 months now.

Well, to paraphrase an old saying about golf..........

"A bad day (or at least a disappointing day) at GPL is still better than a good
day at work."  8-)

Right?

  not 12 steps..but merely two...
go to vroc and wait for me to eventually show up...usually every 6 months or
so i make it on...then and this is the most important step...
STAY BEHIND ME FOR THE ENTIRE RACE !!!  Using this method you will throw
your computer out the highest window with all the force you can muster...
