I haven’t been able to do a Monday at the track in over two years. I ended up working on Sunday so I took Monday off. I would have rather had the OT, but since that is limited, I’ll take the track time. 😀
Jaime showed up at my place really early… ick! I’m so not a morning person, but the idea of going to the track and not work made it almost enjoyable. After loading her gear in the track we headed down to the track. We ended up with the place to ourselves up until the last 1 hour we where there.
I worked with Jaime on getting her to stop rushing the entrance to turn 7 on the std config. It’s scary to watch her do that, it puts her on a path to hit the K wall. Never a good thing. She was finally getting her body off the bike, getting her shifting done in better spots, and getting her self set up earlier. The only thing that showed up was her wanting to get hard on the gas with some lean angle. I now totally get why Mark fussed at me over that a few years ago. It really does almost make your heart stop.
I did get a few hot laps in while we where there. It was great to be able to carry pace through turn 7. I even got my knee down in the hair pin twice, and I never put my left knee down.
