Lower Class Imput

It's taken me some time to "adjust" to owning/driving a slower car. Toward the end of 2020, things started to come around.

I will agree you have to really pay attention to the weather conditions. Pay attention to your weather station, and keep good logs. You also have to do your prep exactly the same each round. You need to learn to stage exactly the same also. Repetition! Repetition! Repetition! Lots of little things to do.

On the plus side, you are never going to spin. If the weather stays the same, you are going to be really consistent. Maintenance is minimal, just check everything as you would any car.

Top end, it's a whole different ball game judging the finish line and the on coming opponent that may be 60 mph faster then you. But, remember, they have to judge where you are at on the track also.

As far as the car, I have enjoyed running the V/SA more then anything I have ever had in the past. Looking forward to competing again in 2021.
