<< The 8-cone slalom was a bit much! By about the fourth or fifth cone, I was getting a little nervous. I also watched a few people go through it with the back end of their cars swinging out wider an

I liked the 8 cone slalom, but I wish they were closer together. I hit the rev limiter in 2nd after about 5 cones and had to ride it the rest of the way. I didn't think shifting into 3rd in the middl

Then you should have gone to the Divisional. Three 8-cone slaloms on three successive courses is enough for me. I'm not saying I do them perfectly, but that was plenty of opportunity to improve! I do

You probably should have went to 3rd by the 4th cone! That's way too long to be on the rev limiter, IMHO. Arie --

Comments - since the cones were evenly spaced, why'd it take so long to get up to speed on the slalom? Second, what's the problem with shifting in the slalom? If you need third, you need third. KeS (

I agree completely. Our typical "slalom" (3-5 cones) consists of acceleration past the first 1-2 cones, maybe one lifting/braking point in the middle and then acceleration from that point out. The di

Okay, I had to go check because I knew it was more than 3-5 cone slalom. Last year's Nationals South course included a 6 cone slalom. Check it out at: http://www.scca.org/amateur/solo2/99nationals/so

I definitely vote for smooth steering inputs. I just wish I drove like I vote. Hmmm, Maybe not, since I tend to be a "middle of the road" voter. I guess I'm just "using all of the track" in the poll

I thought the divisional slalom was a hoot. On Saturday's runs the cones varied in spacing which added to the interest. I'd measured between the typical 22 paces and as much as 26. Unfortunately my s

For the NorPac Divisional, Casey Cronin had an eight cone slalom (cleverly disguised with two walls replacing two of the single slalom cones) which demanded the same kind of driver skill and control.
