Default Once the HT10s heat up, I liked them, but they didn't work at all when cold...

and they wore pretty quickly. Only one day on the Blacks so far, but they didn't wear much and they worked when cold.

Default Get to some different tracks. Enjoying your local one is always great, but there

are so many other wonderful tracks in your region.

Default Actually, Christian was my instructor at Waterford that weekend....m..

I was really pleased with the coaching and information he gave me during my sessions with him. He was very specific on items I could improve on, and also showing me a different line at what he called the "throw away corner" at Waterford. I tried that line and on several occasions, while in a little traffic, it was very clear that the line was faster, and had it been a competitive event, I could complete a pass at that turn.

Christian was certainly confident, but as we chatted throughout the weekend, it was clear he has a tremendous amount of time on Waterford, over the course of probably 8-10 years.

On Sunday, he took me for a session in his 993. He is OMG fast. What impressed me was the quickness of his turning corrections on one or two of the very sharp turns, especially at the one I mentioned above (Skeethouse). I'd probably say that he was one of the fastest, if not the fastest, at Waterford that weekend, and by that I mean car+driver.

Cool. I also noticed his heel-toeing was stupid fast and consistent, too

Default I only looked down at the pedals once, because I didn't want to lose my lunch. :-)

That car is fast and has crazy amounts of grip and brakes.
