July "Mohud at LRP" Thread...

The "one move" rule is good guidance. Dario F almost fell afoul of this at the Toronto Indycar race this past weekend. It was DAMNED close but he didn't get dinged after the steward types changed their minds.

Oh yeah, there is a car out there. Oooops.

Not going to get in this fight. Very iffy here on whos doing what to whom.

Dan 77 IT7
 
Yeah. That was a crappy moment. Miata to my right was wandering down across the track at me and I was watching her and moved with her to keep clear of contact with her when suddenly there was Christian to my left. My fault that I fixated on the car coming across and totally missed him coming through like that. He was a rocket ship.
Sorry again Christian. :(
 
No worries Steph. I saw you getting the squeeze from the Miata and moved over. Also, you tried to give me some room during the pass. Not so much with the other, very cool BTW, pics of me in the grass next to Dave.

Dave Gran, after seeing pics 51-55 at puckstopperphotography.com, do you still want to say you never saw me??!! wink & smile :-)

After the race at impound after hearing the predicament you were put in caused by me, I apologized profusely and wanted to discuss the situation. I went as far as sincerely offering to disqualify myself from the race, thus awarding you the win without going through the protest process or even seeing my in-car video or anyone else’s. Based on this do you really think a win is really that important to me where I’d purposefully put you in a dangerous situation? While the various checkered flags and trophies in my garage are neat, I care much more about all the friends and awesome memories I’ve had along the way.

You asked to see my in-car video; just as I asked to see yours. I do think my in-car shows yet another perspective. Regardless of anything, you went off and I do feel bad about that. If you feel that I saw you and it was malicious at this stage, there’s nothing I can do about that.

I do feel that these discussions are great learning opportunities for not only us but others here.
 
Sorry I am late to the party with the video.

I had nothing for anyone this weekend, issues with the car, but more so with the driver. Dan was earning back his spot which I took the start. He was passing for position. I did not contest it because I was like a stone and he would have passed me eventually so I let the pass happen on my terms by easing up on the straight and hanging a bit deep into the braking zone into turn 1.

I never saw the blue car until he popped out in front of Dan mid turn. I was surprised to see him. Makes me wonder what would have happened if I tried to defend my position and keep Dan behind me.

Throughout the weekend I knew the blue car was loose after seeing a few wobbles and a trip through the grass in front of me in the same spot as this incident.

With that in mind, when I saw the blue car hot in the turn, out in the marbles, I decided to hang back a bit and let them get through the turn, glad I did.

You have to apply and bring 15 letters of recomendation, notarized in triplicate, and be approved by a commitee of your peers. Then we might allow you the privalige of "Borrowing" an IT7 car.

After succesfully completeing the initiation phase, you will then be allowed to look at IT7 cars in the area. you cant buy them yet as they need to be offered to the members in good standing first, after that they will be offered to new members.

After purchase, you will need to fetch us beers forever and then you can race us.

Sound good Andy?

Greg, we decided you need one more race to prove your mettle. And I need a chance to redeem the 77 car.

OR

You can check out theclassifieds and go around all this tom foolery.

thats a New Hampshire IT-7.
A summit Point IT-s is a ITA RX-7. Same in Ohio,and most other places. A Georgia or SC IT-7 has Toyos, on 13s, I think. Unless it's at the ARRC, when it's an ITA RX-7
