      Most dangerous course I've seen in awhile. Trees, buildings, and semi trailers on the course. All you need now is a steep cliff. Great JOB though.

        HAHA... true.. This is NOT an SCCA Sanctioned event... one of my events could NEVER be held here...

        BUT, I like it!! Makes it challenging!!! FUN TOO!!!

        This is Cincinnati Sports Car Club and not the SCCA....

            If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

              needs to keep his foot in it more and left foot brake. and stiffen up that rear a bit more, you car shouldn't plow like that. just observations from the vid. the big 180 before the exit to the long right sweeper/finish: i was half expecting some counter steer with his entrance speed and turn in.

                What do you mean by plow??

                The car doesn't plow to my knowledge...

                It picks up it's rear inside everywhere... I am not sure it could get any stiffer without welding it solid... lol...

                    could just be the driver, i'll review the vids again and list where i see the "issues".

                    please take no offense, this is strictly objective. totaly not ragging on you or your car (but i think you knew that).

                          oh no.. I know that... no offense... just trying to see what you saw..

                          This guy flat rips in my Festy... beats me by over a second.. and that is an enternity in AutoX... that is why he is co-driving it...

                          I talked to him today.. and he said he didn't feel like the car was pushing or plowing at all... it is nice and loose, and rotates on command. Stiff as a board.. but still keeps traction..

                          Let me know what you see... always willing to improve that car...
