Looks like the pewter car could have used up more of the track.. It looks like hes just not tracking out enough.
You paid for all the track, use it!
Overall, looks like a good session though!

Its all about looking where you need to go..
Look through the apex, look at your braking zone, look at your track out, look at where YOU need to be, not at what is in front of you. By the time you see what the car is doing infront of you (even if he is doing EXACTLY what you need to be doing) just trying to follow their motions will mess you up.. Your timing on turn-in will be off and so on.
Overall, not too bad though.. Just remember to not watch the car in front of you except for not running into the back of him.

With the new brakes I can go much deeper now, thats hard to learn after not having any brakes. I can also turn in later with the brakes, also hard to learn...the brakes kinda screwed me up lol.
Any criticism is welcome, Mitch I know your out there.

Only time i pay attention to the vehicle ahead is when i can see there front tires and see there slip angle to know what kind of run I'll have on them (if any) coming out of a corner; also for finding slippery spots on the track that i can avoid ![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)
definitely use all the track though. This is HPDE, not a race, don't get caught up in the "I have to beat that guy" mentality..plus you're still new to this
