It's that time of year again.... Comin up on spring & we're all gettin ready for the season (only 93 days left!)....
So what are your big goals for the '09 LRRS season? I'm always interested in hearing where people stand now & where they want to be by the end of the year.
I've got a handful of minor goals, but I'll cut to the chase & get right down to business.... ie, LAP TIMES!
I'm hoping to pick up this season where I left off in the mid 1:22 range (PB of '08 was a 1:22.2) and drop into the teens asap.... We'll see if I can't do that by the Classic.It might be a lofty goal, but doable if I really work hard at it.
As for those minor goals, I just want to have a solid, fun and SAFE season where I learn as much as I can from the other experts (and of course the rest of the TTD staff, but track day goals belong in the track day section).
I also wanna to improve my cornerspeed everywhere obviously, but mainly into, through and out of the bowl... For some reason I've got a mental barrier there that I just can't seem to break through... I just need to man up, let go, put my head down & get through it.

With a Personal Best of a 1:22.6 I hope to pick up where I left off and drop into the teens by the classic as well. It will be difficult with the limited amount of racing I will be doing.
As for areas of improvement. I need to work on my drives out of the corners and I would really like to nail 3 and 10. Anyone have tips? (Pete?)

I thought ROTY was pretty much reserved for first year racers who scream up through the ranks? IE because I crashed my first weekend and missed half the season, I'll never be eligible?
I was advised against doing my first race on the last date of 07 specifically because of the ROTY possibility.
