    Re: Turn 2 @ loudon

    Lotta little tiny added steering inputs after your initial input in the lap leading up to the crash... gotta try & minimize those mid corner corrections. It's tough to tell, but it looks like that contributed to, if not caused the T2 crash. VERY common.

    The spot at which you went down, I prefer to be neutral throttle and almost start DECREASING my lean angle if I can, or at least be ready to. After your initial turn-in you shouldn't add any more steering inputs. If you're running wide, so be it... just delay your throttle on to keep from running wider than you already are.

    Unless you have full rain tires on a wet track at Loudon, Turns 2 & 11 will continue to "bite" you; unless they do something about the pavement there. Same thing happens in Turn 1A on a cold morning in the dry. Didn't look like very much correcting to your input entering Turn 2. There has always been a "phantom greasy spot" just before the Apex of Turn 2 that shows up when wet track conditions are just right. Granted there are other issues with the pavement transition getting back into the NASCAR Turn 2 when the suspension gets unsettled, so minimizing the lean angle is a good compromise.

    I've kissed 11 and 12 in the wet. Good times.
