Still in Group 2 for now.

In Group 3 now.

Bought new helmet for it.

They asked for a couple of us the drop down to run in Group 2 because of the number of cars in Group 3 this day.

Group 3 has a lot of pure race cars in it. Nothing like getting past by a Nascrap stocker or a old Ford GT 40 with a 427 in it.

Different view. Don't realize at how much bouncing around you do. I still have a habit of trying to lean the car like a motorcycle.

I lean in my seat. Took a while to break myself of that habit.

What I hate is these little 4 bangers with big turbos making about 500 Hp. They will pass you on the straights, only to get outbraked into a turn. Then they slow everyone up in the turns.

I leave these guys go by and give them some distance. Then run them down in the turns.

What track is that, it looks like it's pretty rough. I never bounced like that on NJMP tracks. That problem is typical of HDPE, just have to have a friendly conversation with the drivers after the first run. I usually have that problem though with the camaros, mustangs, and hemi's. They blow by me on the front straight and after the 2nd or 3rd turn I'm back on their butts.
