Another great event put on by CR-SCCA! The course was tight in spots and it taught me a lot about slowing down to go fast. LOL I will have video this weekend where you can see me miss gates and plow into tight corners.

This Mustang II was totally prepared and a really neat car to see out on the track.

***Bonus Lesson***

Here are the 3 ways to cross the finish line after a 90 degree right hand turn.

First, Understeer. Thank you to Mr. What-up-ski for demonstrating this painful way of slowing down.

Next, flat cornering…

…and finally, oversteer. Possibly the funnest way to finish.
