>>If I try to drive conservative-and-clean, it typically turns out to be
clean-and-dog slow and the run is wasted anyway.<<
I'm glad somebody else has the same problem as me! I definitely understand the
intent of the whole "drive slow to go faster" thing, but when I drive 'slow', I
go slow. The only time I seem to do a good run is when my back's against a
wall. When I'm a bundle of nerves, and I know that I have to not only drive
clean, but also drive the pee waddle doo out of my car, that's when I set my
personal best times. Maybe I'm too complacent or something, but I *need* the
pressure to perform. "Nothing to lose" situations don't work well for me
either. That's when I tend to overcook a corner or something. Any
psychiatrists out there got a theory for me? ;-)
