well, first off.. i would like to thank my instructor Evan who did a great job teaching me what I needed to know. as i went into the frist session and applied what i was told.. i learned and applied everything within the first 10-20 laps... from there on i was pretty smooth with heel-toe and shifting as well as hitting all my apex's.... i only had to work on finding a consistent breaking POINT for each corner.. some corners i would want to drill them and go in too hot and some i was not fast enough.

However as the day went on I figured that out and was doing "fenominal" as my instructor told me.

I did not experience the JITTERs or SHAKES i think because i was really mentally ready to do the event and was going over alot of stuff in my mind Pre- Event. Just thinking of what driving style I would be using... how I would react with certain situations and corners, just really mentally thinking alot about how i was going to drive.

all in all i learn a hell of a lot, I did what I knew how to do and was not trying to be a rock star out there, i had fun doing it and cant wait to do it agian.. and in re-turn i got signed off. all in all.. another Type R owner now hooked on Track events

Well was a good weekend, I was recovering from friday night , but had a good time, found out another honda motor company vehicle I cant fit in to add to the list, S2k , DC2, Civic, NSX
The NSX has perfect leg room, but no head room, I had to slouch down to keep my head off of the ceiling....

Hopefully we can get the cylinder head off of MJ's engine soon to determine if it is useable, but it will be back stronger than before....

Looks like you had a good time on the track, always good to put an R to use.

I'd rather put the GT3 to good use than the R.
