i thought after the warm up lap my hands were in good position when it mattered

sometimes i trail brake and downshift entering a corner hence steering with one hand.. sometimes i want the hand ready on the knob so i dont hit the rev limiter .. other times i was adjusting a vent something on a straight lol ..

thanks for watching .. it turned into a fun session

@davidc1
Jeff could probably out drive most of us with no hands on the wheel. lol

@Duke Togo
I appreciate you including that pic of me spinning. I was trying to drift that turn on purpose and spun. Every time I try to slide I lose it. But, I catch most my stuff when Im grip driving as seen in those previous two pics (silver s2k with HT #52). I suck at drifting! lol

Here's my vid from that day.
MY05 with Espelir springs on stock shocks and non-staggered OEM wheels with 255 star specs.

Fastest I noticed was 129in and 122 out. But, I was not consistent. I was scared to stay flat until that last session.
