HA! Good thing Holly edited the video! I am VERY bad at the left foot/break thing. After 2+ years of driving a manual, its hard to teach the clutch foot to be a gentle break foot. It was some violent looking breaking, I'm sure.

(if you dont know what I'm talking about, you break w the left and gas w the right to get a good launch lol)

It was a great time!

I thought you would like that bit of editing. The run was really good.

haha! exactly what I thought! you dont just gas it and go, there are procedures (the tree, staging, right lane and left lane, driver courtesy and what not), and you gotta hook it just right... worry if the track is sticky or not (you want it to be sticky) and you gotta be prepared for your windows to fog up!! Happened to me, scared the hell outta me, good thing I had Mike there with me
