    i didnt see him the 4th time i went but then the 5th time i went he never passed me. so obviously my skills are getting better. still have a lot to learn. for me it is a mental battle to tell myself "SLOW INTO THE CORNERS"!!!. lol. i just want to floor it around the track and that just does not work. LMAO
    When you drive a single seater and so long as its not too acute a corner you have to keep your foot flat to the floor, I was coached on a race track in a palmer jaguar also and went through a shacaine (spell) and the coach was yelling at me 'dont you dare back off' because if you back off half way you lose down force and traction, I was shitting myself because it was the opposite of my instincts but it worked. When I finished a saw two guys spin out and the coach said its because they backed off the throttle

    yea when I got first lesson the guy was like "you think you know how to brake and how to go around a corner, none of you do." hahahaha - some dude had a gt2, fucking thing went spinning out into middle of nowhere off the track, poor car. I absolutely killed brembo breaks on my S4 at track dude - I mean they were toasted , but saving those seconds meant i was nothing but accell around the bends.

    the TT is a great car if you are a hot chick and it's fun in the snow - that's about it. Compared to a 350 , let alone 370 z it wouldn't have a snowballs chance in hell. I was saying it's all about being behind the wheel and I never would sleep if you beat me in a race of any types unless its like nascar or some shit that requires shit for skill (yes I've been on the NH circuit if any of you like it, got up to 178 and that shit is short). Road courses, it's amazing how little the car matters bro. I'm sure you've seen some dude in like a GTI just ripping the shit out of a track before , it's all about how you view whats ahead.

    I am not trying to sound like a dick, i've been racing for ages homey you caught a TV show and found a few tracks. I can get you more vids if you want, bike days , car days you name it - im just not sharing in open some have plates and shit.
    you may be a great driver, i have no idea about that. i thought you were saying the TT in general is the faster car. lol.

    maybe the TT RS that they have in Europe (the baby R8) but not the one that we have in the US. i dont know about you but the TT maybe a nice little car but to me that does look like a chick car.

    you for real bro? lol.

    370 around a proper road course by the same pro driver would beat your old TT be a huge margin.

    whats the specs on your TT?

    trust me it does - you have an entire different view of the abilities of a vehicle on tarmac after you test other surfaces, once you are left foot breaking half way decently down that alone will let you control your car significantly better. I'm just goin off what I did dude, I did track time and I wasn't very good - I had drifted for awhile and my friend knew i was kinda nutty and would jump on rallying , so i did it and i still go driving whenever i can.

    second only to bikes, the ultimate.

    I wouldnt think that kind of driving on dirt snow etc.. would improve street driving because of the total different feel of the driving surface
