DANG !!! Finally got my CFC on track on Monday. I had no appreciation of just how fast these cars are. I may have the slowest CFC in the country. Still, it was difficult to get my head around the speed at entry. H*&y S&*! I'm ten seconds off the FC record & having a blast. OMG !!! FIRST, I want to acknowledge that I know nothing about racing a Formula Car ! I thought I did... Intellectually, yes. In reality, no. All my prior comments on racing have been rendered null & void.... After a day to decompress, I must admit, it was fun having a very fast car on track with some very serious tin tops. At best I was driving the car at 8 tenths. Short shifting ( I know nothing about the engine ) braking way, way early. Still, very fast. I want to thank all the tin top drivers at BIR for giving me lots of room. The braking is incredible. The speeds thru the turns is truly remarkable. And my car is just an entry level machine... My respect for the guys who design, build, tune & drive these things has gone off the charts... Now, how do I manage to think about work... I believe Steve was right. Life IS racing. All else is just waiting...
