Re: Selecting the first few pairings to run
One particular driver who has won many national events always lays back and generally is in the last two pairs out. We noticed this and watched at a couple years of national events and came to this conclusion. He doesn't want to be fast so he and his crew watch intently as to what is transpiring. You couldn't talk to that guy even if he shoe was on fire. He is watching with purpose. We also noticed this: If the session is close to dark, he is the first pair or second pair out without fail. Why? He hates driving at night and his stellar driving at day becomes horrendous at night. Some know of who I refer to and others will figure it out at the races. Suffice to say, if you have to race the guy at night, just be somewhat on time and watch it happen before your eyes.
