Virginia International Raceway Crashes

FastJew

Had my first session today at Eagles Canyon Raceway. Awesome time and not one incident from a novice. Drive within your means and a little slower than you think you can and you will be fine. Novices should be focusing on driving the line and getting used to the workings and rules of driving on a track.

One more piece of advice: LEAVE YOUR STABILITY CONTROL ON!!! You will have plenty of time to learn your cars charicteristics at the limit once you get used to driving on a track.

This is an important one. It was very helpful a number of times when I was getting used to a wet but drying track. Parts were super slick, others had great grip...and knowing which was which was challenging. By the end of the day we were joking about the 'little Japanese guys who kept us on the track' every time we saw the VDC light come on.

I do think I won't truly get the feeling of what the car is like or fully appreciate handling a corner with drift etcetera unless the VDC is off. However, there are better times to play with VDC off such as Auto-X.
