I was sliding all over the place. I had another spin in the last session with only about a lap to go. The tires are 275 35 vs the Nittos which are 315 30. I am really rusty (no pun intended) as I haven't been to the track since March. We shall see what tomorrow brings!

It will take you a little while to get back up to speed, and feel comfortable again. For me. The first day has been chit days. Then I sleep on it and do better after that. If everything feels it's happening so fast. You know you are struggling, and behind. It's when things feel like they're in slo-mo. Then you know you're going fast, and on top of it.

Agreed, they moved up to the to level drivers as well. I think it read on the schedule advanced, race and professional drivers so they are all fast and once I lift to let one car by there six behind him in a hurry so I let everyone by and just tried to do my own thing. I am going to ask to be dropped down a level which is where I signed up. Most of the times in that run group where what I was doing as well. I am confident tomorrow will be better.

I know that feeling. I'm in Group 3 with all the go fast crazies and their full blown racecars. Nothing like getting passed by a GT40, Nacrappers, and ACR's. It hurts one's ego a little.
