Awesome weekend at Road Atlanta. First time there - that track is amazing fun but pretty treacherous. Not the kind of place to learn car control. There were ~90 that started the weekend and three cars left in pieces. Drivers seem to be fine, thankfully. Downhill section leading into turn 10a took one, another over-steered out of turn 5 I was told, and the last I think was near start finish (need to confirm).

My times were 1:40/1:41 all day long. Then I took a ride with a local and found some new lines and break points. Unfortunately only got one clean lap to end my day today with the faster line, but very happy with the time of 1:39.14.



Way home... 70 miles short of home base, nice couple honked at me to let me know that I was missing a wheel. Oops, guess these things weren't made for going 85 through crappy Charlotte roads!



BTW, figured out you can just strap the hub with missing wheel to the frame and limp home at 47mph... long drive
