Default Re: no more blocking

2-steps operated off of the footbrake - is foot brake racing. I have been using a 2-step on the brake pedal for 10 years - why is it suddenly an issue? It obviously did not turn me into really good driver. The only thing that did that was putting my son in the seat.

I think it only improves reaction time not performance.

Talented and more experienced people will be better than average people. Maybe the list of talented people will get bigger now - time will tell.

I hope kids like Andy (and others) will learn what is important in life, as well as in racing.

Honesty, integrity, effort and friendship.
I think the off season puts a lot of stress on us.
