Yeah, I got an hour earlier than normal, and that normal time was now an hour earlier, so the bottom line is I got up when it was still dark. Luckily the anxiousness about tests and going home kept me powered through the day.

I prefer the daylight savings time schedule. I like lots of sun after I get home from work. With some luck I should get my Elky washed this afternoon after I get home. Last week it was pretty much dark by the time I got home and fed the dogs. The dogs love daylight savings time for the first few days. They get to eat an hour earlier. They adjust real fast. They hate it when daylight savings changes back to regular.

Me too. Makes for a nice bike ride in brisk morning air, no glaring sun, light traffic. And the extra evening light is a bonus. But once summer heat hits it won't be so cool. (I guess that's a pun).

He had a good 250 yards on me, basically the off ramp,but braked too soon and went through the turn well below the capabilities of his Ferrari..
By the time he was close to exit of the turn, i was chucking BF-1 in, just dropped it a gear , no brakes required.
And i had carried enough speed to close in, and now he was out of the turn, and gunning it again but way to low of speed to catch the speed i was carrying...
That beautiful noise was very loud, but this time i heard it from the front, to the side, and then in the back as i blew past him and dove into turn2
Not bad for a Diesel. |
Go Stijn!
You need to do a racing school or a video like Rendevous with real audio from the actual video, at actual speed.
My tests went well. I ended up not studying. Read the Racecar Engineering on Saturday then spent the rainy/cloudy Sunday messing around with Solidworks. I ended up making a wheel resembling a Fuchs for no real reason other than I wanted a wheel for my model suspension.
