MAZOC Karting Challenge 27 April (Sat.)

Now I understand :-)

And yes, if the lighter person pushed more, they would have beaten you potentially, assuming their skill was up to snuff. But they didn't. Does that mean weight doesn't matter, however? Nope. You are making the assumption that just because we have done HPDE that we are automatically excellent kart drivers? Lol. ****, my first run, my best lap was only 70 seconds. Second? 66.87. Third? 64.6. Final? 64.1. Next session would be in the 63's, I promise you.

Your AVERAGE speed was a full 3 seconds faster than almost everyone your FIRST run.

What I just proved is, in only 4 runs, I was able to consistently drop my times each time out (both average, and fastest lap). THAT is where my HPDE came in handy.

This is about the same as us both hitting Shenandoah, with my experience against you fresh out for your first HPDE. Except you'd need to close the gap between you and myself for lap times and consistency within only 4 HPDE sessions. That is practically impossible and I'd never expect you to do it, nor would I say anything about it lol.

So what Steve and I are saying is, you are barking up the wrong tree here, and for now that black flag will just have to haunt you :-P

It's stupid, actually. If you spin, they black flag you, and you have to come into the pits to serve a penalty. IMO, the time lost by spinning out should be the penalty.

Dana was pissed because when she spun, the guy gave her some (angry) lecture. She felt like they rubbed her the wrong way by treating her like a noob so she quit. She knew why she spun but the guy wouldn't quick yapping. I was upset about that because she would have done well if she stuck with it. Oh well... there's next time.

Actually, I take that back, Dee would have been in heaven if he saw how cheap the gas was in Winchester.

Black flag should only be used if driver is being overly aggressive/dangerous to other drivers not to ones who spin out by themselves not causing harm to the other racers.
