great, mentally challenging course. i woke up this morning realizing one
place i had interpreted all wrong!!
however "no gravel"???? by the 8th run group i could not launch at all at
the start.. tires covered with gravel, 1/10 throttle and they would spin.
then front tires covered with gravel... noooo traction in the front until
the 3rd turn. saturday means FAR less traffic too.
tito solis in the cobra. who taught him that hand position? must be some
toyota thing :)
