no way any of you can tell what's going on.
big boy is just showing his ignorance again.
and how can you tell by lean what's up? do you know what suspension setup he's running?

each car and each driver will take a turn differently. maybe that turn requires a late apex to set up the next turn, or that driver is faster if he apexes later.

i thinks it's a good picture of one of our cars doing what they were designed to do, and someone learning how do drive it. (whether he is hitting the apex too late or not)


As I said, from looking at the wear on the track, he is on the most commonly taken driving line. You don't need to see any more of the turn to tell that.

My original bench racing caveat applies (ie. this is just guesswork).

Greg.
