Richard,
That's a nice post mortem, but let's face it, I was top up mostly because it's worth 8mph at the end of the straight
On some days, like this one at Laguna Seca, I couldn't resist being top down.

Yeah, that's my line in GT4 also, but when I actually drove LS, I felt like I was going to bend a wheel or even break a weld in my car the one time I hit that rumble strip! It's really violent.

Oh please, let's not start coining the term "pull a Clark" or people will really start getting confused/concerned.
pantyraider: but rev said the rumble strip itself felt very violent... just trying to see if not riding the strip will be detrimental to getting the best time out of the car/driver combo

What you should ideally do, is make your inital turn in and then aim for the oak tree straight ahead of you. If you do it right, you should be right at the inside edge of the rumble strip.
