No I don't, I just want to upload and share an IMG. Not a clickable image that goes to my account, fuck! Every time I sign PB sucks more and more.

stealthify

07-15-2013, 10:51 PM

PB has really failed to keep up :( But Flickr doesn't force clickable images to an account page anymore. Check out Traci's above.

Alternatively, if you guys ever need image hosting, feel free to use the 3000GT/Stealth wiki:

Upload Image - 3000GT/Stealth Wiki (http://www.3swiki.org/Special:Upload)

You can upload full resolution, and I'll sort them to keep all the NG stuff together.

You guys have NO clue...

Steve does AMAZING things with his GOD given assets!!!! (Steve, you know how I feel about your hand...)

His wife, however, was not as impressed....she eventually realized he was as awesome as we thought he was, and gave him the green light to continue ON!!!!

FWIW, 3 or 4 other cars spun out shortly (very) after Steve. The sun heated the track and made it "greasy"....

A TIME OUT was had by all.....(thank you Lori :) )

All and all, a VERY enjoyable afternoon of Road Course spectating!!!!

Sean, you missed a heck of an event. The weather was perfect. And despite the fact that I was pretty sick all week (I now know it's pneumonia and bronchitis - yuck!), I still had a great time. Everything ran smoother than I could've hoped for, and, for the most part, everyone was cooperative. I have absolutely no complaints. Some lessons learned, but that's ok, too. Some things I'll do differently next year, but I'm already hard at work on that and can't wait to plan it. All in all, an amazing year, I thought.

Von at the end is hilarious, lol. I had his wife in the car with me that run, she needed to see the course done correctly (something I had not done the 2 previous runs) so I finally got it right.

After further review... that run was sloooow. I could of done 1:15's, so much lost time.

I didn't think about it ahead of time but I wished I would have brought a helmet and long pants so I could have rode with somebody. I think they let people ride along on the road course also. I would have done that also.

I'm pretty sure it was only experienced drivers for the road course.

I usually bring my spare helmet to these things, you could have rode with me (granted you found pants)

Paul, there were no ride-alongs on the road course, except experienced drivers with beginners and vice versa. Sorry - that's one thing that won't be able to change. The minute we change it, it's like changing the road course to a race.. The insurance skyrockets. We allowed them on the AutoX this year, but no guarantees for next year.

Quick answer = loaded suspension + weight transfer

Long Answer = To help with the explanation I want to point out that the track is composed of two turns at the "S", turn 3 and turn 4. By the time Steve is coming out of the S (in turn 4), the car is sliding heavily to the left (driver's side) which has loaded the suspension to the left. As Steve tries to correct the slide to the right he is transitioning the weight of the car from left to right. And as he does this the suspension unloads from left to right making the weight transition of the car more abrupt, which initiates the slide in the other direction. The force of the suspension unloading as the weight of the car transfers is essentially like a severe/abrupt change in steering in the opposite direction, like he had turned the wheel to the left multiple rotations.

Based on the footage it looks like the trouble began as he was turning into turn 3, it looks like he strarted sliding there. And then he tried to correct that slide to transition the car into to turn 4. And once the slide was transitioned into turn 4 he was pretty much done.

Overall I think he did a great job of keeping his car out of the tire wall, and spinning toward the infield is way better than sliding toward the tire wall imo. Usually your head/thoughts are lagging behind your reflexes in a situation like that, you act quicker than you think.

Levi, I didn't know you was riding with me ;) That is exactly what happened. by the time had had the car stable (if at all) I was too far inside of turn 4, just trying to make the turn cause the car to slide again.

And thank you Levi, I was trying my damnedest to get the car to straighten out. If you look carefully you can see the black blobs that are my wheels whipping from left to right against the spin attempting to gain control back.

car goes on grass, no traction, tires hit pavement while steering wheel turned (not slight turn), traction kicks in, car hooks and spins around

Did he clutch in and brake when he lifted, I have no idea.

Clutch no, Brake, I was braking in that moment of straight line, I knew I was going too fast for where I was in turn 4. I had no idea I popped up until seeing the video.
