Default thursday's driving skill's.

In preparation for October's formula rally x event, i took some time to learn some techniques that i thought might be advantageous to my situation.
today i learned:
heel toe
trail braking
scan. flick
and keeping the revvs high enough to keep the next gear from killin my day.

pics.

right 4 to straight


left 2, serious under steer, YIKES


the left 2, successful. lil air shot.

I learned a LOT on the road coarse at Willow Springs when I took my Mustang there for some track events.

On the rev thing.. yep... always keep the revs high.

I think at Willow springs my revs never went below 4k (6k redline).
