Actually I did leave the drivers seat on stop no.4 and locked myself out for about 5 minutes. Fortunately one of my smarter pit crew members pointed out that the window was down and all was well. Well except the extra 5 minutes lost of course.
So to sum up my last event:
1. Stop for tires every lap (estimated 5 minutes lost)
2. New wiper blades (estimated 1 minute lost)
3. new stereo install (and they charged me extra too) (estimated 15 minutes lost)
5. locking myself out of the car (estimated 6 minutes lost)
6. Pulling a boat around the track (estimated 8 minutes lost)
so if my math is correct and I delete all the time lost from the above, I would have shaved 35 minutes from my time. Now since I was about 2 minutes back of Arveena, my newest estimates put me in the lead by about a half hour (give or take a few of course).
yep, sounds right to me.

1) Drive in reverse. it could decrease the tires-wear significantly. (and your vette will be much more tail-happy)
2) Remove the blade completely and use Rain-X lotion instead. (Save weight too by removing the whole windshield wiper module)
3) Hook up the bluetooth headset with your smartphone. ((Weight saving)
4) ops... you don't have a (4)
5) Don't use keyless entry
6) Next time pull a fighter-jet instead, thus you also have an option of using the extra boost on the straight. (btw, next race is Monaco)


hope it helps

I knew I could count on this group for help when needed. As far as skipping the number 4? Well I had a bad experience with that number as a child and skip it occasionally.

Willow Springs yeah, yeah, yeah, great idea.

Except for one major problem. Which one??
The short simple or the long demanding?

I've got ten votes for Willow Springs, but not one of the ten states which one.

You guys are making this tough
 
Big Willow and I know that this goes against my last suggestion but, I think we should toss in Ascari as the Fifth and Final track in the US Tour. We can pretend that Ascari is in the US can't we?
 
But if we replace Apricot Hill for Ascari it will not be Tour of US!! Lets just stay with Tjgers idea so we don't create problems for him. He puts a lot of effort to put this events together.

As for which Willow, i meant the BIG FAT Willow lol... the one that has the shape of a Fish (My Opinion) :lol:

Manny has a point. Ascari can be a pain in the tail pipe.
A lot of braking and some ridiculous corners.

Willow Springs BIG(the fish circuit) that can work.👍


:cool: Other chooses:
Autumn Ring
Grand Valley
Special Stage Route 5 (used in our Tour of Japan)
High Speed Ring
Trial Mountain
Deep Forest
Apricot Hill

💡 Hmm, a neutral country track Not quite US and not quite Europe.
Brands Hatch
Silverstone
Mt Panorama

You guys decide.

Great video as usual Manny. I think this group is open to as many new drivers as we can handle as long as people race cleanly. That's really my only requirement.

You had to add that Trial Mountain ending, didn't ya? lol I still have nightmares!!!!!!!!!!
