http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ga6p6hyGup0&feature=player_embedded I would agree with RE-spec, it would ruin the front straight. Though it was my first time at VIR I had a blast.

Hope to see you soon Knoop!

That front stretch is so awesome, towards the end of the day I got really comfortable holding 3rd gear out and switching back without ebraking at the bottom. I need more seat time at this track!

Man, I only got the front stretch one time -with shallow angle. I think I can bang it out next time! It's gnarly!

Yea man, sleep on your skills. Just keep a track of mistakes you made and things you want to do next event, it really helps. For me at least

This event I was practicing pump e braking/ clutch kicking in between pulls for fun, it was so crazy! Haha until my cables stretched out
