Here I am, at the local autocross double-header weekend race, when I am feeling so great about myself being able to lower my time a full 5 seconds over the course of the week-end (13 runs). Such a progress would have probably taken more time without the precious help and pointers of my friend Marc who makes FTD at every event with his prepared Civic.
In any case, after such progress (5 seconds on a 55 second course), I'm thinking it might be time now to start upgrading tires, suspension, brakes since I probably already have quite upgraded the driver, right ? That's when I hand my NSX keys to Mark who has never driven my car, let alone ever driven an NSX at all.
His time on this one and only run?
1.5 seconds faster than my fastest time ! And then after being so happy and greatful for the opportunity to drive an NSX he adds that with a bit of practice he can probably take another couple of seconds off that time. I guess, I'll keep on upgrading and investing in the driver for now... :biggrin:
