well said toleg... I totally agree with you. I wont say I was good on track rather i have realized what all aspects i need to focus on...i couldnt keep up with latest civic FD just because i was lacking proper setup. Anyways thumbs up for dat pinoy guy ... he really gave me a hard time at curves and bends......

Who drove that slow? I wanted to push my car harder but I didn't, I let myself get beaten by that Jazz!

Great attitude guys, love it. (Y)

Its a Track Day - a place where you can learn all about your car and yourself, in a safe environment.

Best thing to do - back off and try to give yourself some space between you and the car in front so that you can "test" what are the best gears, lines and speeds around different parts of the circuit. Once you have figured all that out, then you can give it some "beans" for the whole circuit.

There are two track days in August, but I have to find out what the SP is with respect to Ramadan - if you are not able to re-hydrate after eacj session, there would be a pile of very crinckled bodies lying in the pit garage! hahahaha
