Auto-X

["Craig Robson" <padow@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thankyou everyone for the responses from everyone earlier this month. I 
was unable to make that event, BUT I did make yesterday's (Sunday in the 
states). And let me say one thing, GOOD LORD! What was it they said.... 
ah yes, "Most fun you will have in your car......in the front seat." 
What an understatment. A total blast. I dropped my times a total of six 
seconds over four runs. Each run about 2 seconds faster than before. So 
now the questions. I only actuated my abs twice the entire day and each 
time I only felt one pulse suggesting that I only used it for a split 
second. Am I not braking hard (read deep) enough? Also, since nobody 
could answer it at the track, I had a enough time to grab third and go 
faster before a hard sweeping big left turn which requires second to 
pull through, should I have gone for it and risk unsetling the car going 
into the turn? I would have to downshift, and haven't yet mastered the 
art of heel and toeing. And one last question, on a particular slalom I 
was unable to balance the car with the throttle so I would get on it and 
then get off, unsetling the car big. Should I have maybe tried third 
where I can balance the car better and then tried second later in the 
day? Thankyou for your patience and replies.
Craig Robson. 
P.S. I won my class, I don't think I deserved it though. I ran H-stock, 
but am thinking of running G-stock next time. The competition didn't 
seem to befit my car, 325es. I realize that it doesn't make that much 
power, but I didn't run as hard as the car could handle. I think I could 
have posted a 55 sec run. The results can be seen at:

I am not sure when they will post them but sometime soon.
