Mike Skeen tearing through people at the first race in the redebuted Trans-Am series at Road Atlanta. was one of the faster cars there but had to start out back, that always makes for a fun in-car video.

yeah, theyre nifty little cars. too bad theyre six figures to buy.

fortunately its a course required for pro-pilot so we're all in the aerospace-meathead major and we all lack the mathematical aptitude the professor was expecting so hes cutting a little slack, but not much :lol: hes keeping my blood pressure above average for the semester.

take as many classes as you can at PSTCC, your GPA doesn't follow you when you transfer them back to UT, just the credit. :wink: at least that's how it used to be.

The star mazda driver is taking the line over the curb out of 5 like I was trying to explain on some other post thread. Do a search for F1000. open wheel with wings, but 1000cc motorcycle engines. :twisted: or DSR 1000cc bike engines with huge downforce. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Is there another line for T5 at Road Atlanta? The only way to ever get fast there is to learn to drive on top of curbs. A little intimidating at first but it is the one true way!
T5 is fun because if you get it wrong you will be in the tire wall at the bank(dont ask how I know this) and getting on the curb wrong coming off T6 will make you climb the bank at T7(again dont ask). T3 is most intimidating because if you get it wrong your choice is to go straight at 80+ into the grass and try to get it right down at the S's or hit the bank on the inside of corner(again dont ask). Oh yeah, I forgot that the banks arent there anymore; just concrete walls. Road Atlanta is now a street course.
