Good ear, William. I never took off the horn and I tend to beep at the corner workers throwing the white and checkered flags (front straight and backside).  It's like I'm acknowledging that I see the session is over.  I will say the guy flagging in T-7 this time was very "enthusiastic" in his flag waving abilities.  I don't recall seeing someone waving flags as vigorous in previous trackdays.

Yea it was plenty of room, for a rider like you (talented). In "that" area, and with those i trust or have watched a few laps, i would rather go outside than inside. Some make a significant swooping move in taking the kink, some don’t. Also, you hold a straighter more predictable line. One of the benefits of riding with good riders is trust.

PLUS---it was a great opportunity to get by the little speed demon I was chasing, who had found himself in traffic to your right :)

  Stupid me !!!!  Gave you the inside in line at Roller coaster !!!!     :banghead:

  I was right up your a_s the last lap 1/2 .....   that was freaking great !!     :tiphat:

  Too bad you didn't have a wider angle camera , the T-1 late brake battle was on !!!

  Last session of the day , was kind of taking it easy ...  had a small moment session before
  front tire had a small slide setting up for T-2 ... So I did some mowing ....       :wow:

 I feel 60! after 25 years in helicopters! Especially my back! But I actually feel better while in the "tucked in position" ! The pain goes away? I wonder if I could get the Vet Admin pay for TD's as pain relief and therapy?  :D

 I was giving you the benefit of my doubt? Anyway, looks like you are getting off the turns real good.

 See you out there next time!
