I meant to post here last week, but just been too busy. I got to drive Circuit of the Americas track here in Austin at the Nismo Performance Academy two weekends ago. I got lots of rest the night before, stayed hydrated throughout the day, and had an absolute blast. Got to drive a Nismo 370Z and a GT-R Track Edition as well as my own Z on the track. Very fun and very interesting to see racing principles in action on the track. Everything felt very natural, even though I wasn't familiar with every specific element discussed in the classroom portion. In the morning session, we even stopped at one of the turns and got out to look around and discuss the physics and different lines of thought regarding the approach to the turn. Truly a great day  |
^^^ THAT had to be AMAZINGLY fun!!
And this most recent autoX I didn't have an experienced driver riding with me at all, on ANY of the runs!! I walked the course 3x to memorize it and I did great (mostly) as far as knowing where to go...just couldn't get there fast enough to suit me...like I said. nerves.
