why is it you cannot put a statement of what you were hearing and suddenly it
is put down as taking votes on it...I made a statement of opinion for what I
was hearing as many classes had times in bunches close together on the south
course. Many roadracing people did well on the south course, people who were
used to high speeds...and if your car was the powert car with losts of torque
and power, they did well. Power cars with horsepower and drivers used to
that did well-top notch drivers in a slower out powered car like Renee Eady
in the Honda or even Brian Priebe's under powered to Erik's subaru in ST was
at a disadvantage. My statement was opinions of various people from various
classes including many of my instructors and when these people and cars were
on the north course, the differences seemed to change. Many top drivers down
from the south course seemed to pull back up when going to the north course
with good, clean runs. Then the big cars, with cone problems but tons of
power seemed to pull themselves back with the faster car on the south.
I really don't appreciate in making an agreement with some other people's
statement and having an opinion to have it put up for debate on. This is what
makes some people not want to ever chime in with opinions, etc...
