Yes the safety aspect will be increased with Hans, Halo, and Net next time. I agree, I was lucky although at times it's a little hard to feel convinced of this. Oh and it was my birthday haha.
The thing that I can't seem to get any information on is should I have rotated the car once off the track or is that just too much an unknown factor?
What would you guys have done once you were heading to the outfield?
There were some signs of suspension malcontent previously and we did adjust the rear rebound plus remove the rear sway. That turn also has some bumps through it and can be a little unsettling. By muffing the 3rd gear change on the turns leading onto the straight I had left a bit more of a gap between the car in front which allowed me to come into that turn 16kmh / 10mph faster than the previous lap, but I have been through that corner plenty of times at what I guess is close enough to that speed.
Gorilla, sorry to hear of your crash. Hope you get it back soon. Assuming you're OK?
nb Jack, that is the short North track that they've recently opened. There will be another South track so they can run 2 events simultaneously. Here's the old GP track in my car back in 2010.
