It was actually not that clear cut decision! Those were good suggestions, each one totally different driving experience. I did quite a few laps with all the suggestions. My short list was down to 3. The Rover ar Eiger was good but passing would have been very difficult on the twisty circuit. The Trans Am was good. It would have levelled the playing field as it is basically flat out around the course with very little braking. In the end the Merc came on tops with speed, drive ability and challenge.

Apologies to anyone that had the displeasure of being on the track with me last night in the practice lobby. I don't know if it was my internet or lack of skill, but my screen was jittery and had a lot of problems getting into the room. Anyway, I can't blame it all the internet, I had no business bringing my lack of skill into the lobby with you guys, so again I'm truly sorry! I will be practicing (solo) as much as possible these next few weeks, and won't subject you guys to that again! Once I'm more comfortable I will join in on the lobby practices. :guilty:

Don't sweat it Vette! You need to practice with people on track to get better. See you soon on the practice circuit!
 
Dont get down vette. When i started in snail and got thrown into d2 i always felt in the way and like i didnt belong. It wasnt until i realized that i belong and if someone is faster its up to them to get around you cleanly that i started to really improve and compete. Honestly, as much as its good practice for d4 guys to follow and learn from d1 guys, its also good (and needed) practice for the d1 guys to figure out how to move through traffic efficiently and cleanly. Its something i still am working on. Everyone belongs and we can all learn from each other and when we race together we all get better.

It's easy to get discouraged when practicing with divisions that are higher, but like they say practice makes perfect so the more we see of you the better imo. Seeing different approaches into corners and braking lines can help you adjust your own and like @Whitey093 was mentioning a page or two back saving the replay and watching what the other guys are doing different can be a big help too. Not to mention it can pay dividends in learning defensive driving and side by side racing. If you'd ever like some tips on braking points or how to approach certain corners/complexes feel free to give me a shout. I'm usually on later in the evening.

Also, this is something I recommend watching. There's a lot of good info on everything from theory to race craft. :cheers:
