[Fot] Two feet in. Re: A-Type Overdrive Testing

[Nick Black]

Back when the “blue bush” was installed, many of us no longer raced there... originally the fence was literally at the edge of the track surface all the way around the track.
It was like racin in a blue alley...drop a wheel and total your car as it pinballed across the track.
Never raced there again

I’ve been in a few situations where other drivers have tried to save a spin by not following this advice and they always come rolling across the track backwards following an unpredictable path usually collecting a few unsuspecting racers along the way.  Always go two feet in.
