but yes, ive been SK qualed for years.

NOW.. the back stretch hairpin needs to be adressed
reference:


lol

so yeah.. the fast line thru here (blue) is hugging the left wall and turning in later so as not to early apex the hairpin. This allows for more momentum as well as a better line into the following left to carry more speed for the short straight.

***BUT***
this is only the case if there is noone riding your ass, demonstrated in the illustration by WALL E.
when the fast line is taken, the inside of the hairpin is left wide open to make a 'dirty pass'. what i mean is.. unless the kart ahead is allowing for an inside pass by staying wide, the aft kart trying to sneak in will have to T-BONE/bump/push out of the way, the kart in front.

sooo if there is someone on that tail, do not swing wide and leave that door open even though it is a faster line thru.

WallE - i know you were knocking on the door since the previous lap.. but that *%!#$@#! 'chris' wasnt paying any attention to blue flags, and staying on his bunk ass line sure wasnt do anything either. I had to try and gain that speed in the exit of the hairpin to get him at the end of the straight. You saw the opening and took it, i might have shook my fist and looked like i was going to beat your ass when you t- boned me, but it was more built up frustration of that fukk not letting me around when clearly i was faster.

Someone please tell me they saw the shenanigans that ensued after i finally passed Chris and he had to spin me to get the spot back.

btw- SK #44 is bunk too
The time I spun you out, I was like fuckkkk. That was my first time there, so I was experimenting with different lines. I would always come up on you, and right at the apex, I would end up hitting you, because you would slow a good bit, due to the douchebag infront of you (not letting either of us pass). My bad about that race, but that guy infront you, just fucked it alllllll up.

I ran 41.6-41.9 3-4 times each race, expect for that one with you. It was my worse one. I was stuck the entire time, but whatever, besides that one race, it was good times. Definitely was nice finally meeting a lot of you.

Me and my friends will surely be back on a Wednesday to get the track down right


ALSO, I THINK THE MACHINE WAS BROKEN WHEN I RACED AGAINEST WOK, BECAUSE I WAS SOMEHOW AHEAD




























































Than I went outside, took another bowl hit, and beat him again Hahahahaha, good times man. Was nice meeting you
