Nackers, Are you still drifting? I grew up in Roscoe, I didn't know you were so close to me.

The thought crossed my mind.

I used to goto Hononegah back in the day. I'm still in Rockford now though.

Crazy, we were even in school at the same time

I dont know about you guys but IF its not a comp. Id rather see a chase car cut a line to close the gap on the lead car and keep it tight. rather than try to run the same line and fall back if they are having trouble keeping pace. from a spectator stand point and as a driver.

also at club loose there is quite a few different lines and styles different people run. And sometimes you get paired up with guys you havent driven with before and can make it hard to anticipate where they are going to put their car.

Guess my taste is just different. I'd rather NOT see the chase car drop a front tire, cut the inside line and almost cut his boy off to try and ram into his door. I'd rather see him follow the same line as closely as possible, and have it look smooth and graceful.

well i would agree to extent, i dont think anybody is out there trying to ram the door of the car in front of them, while some may be trying to push close enough for just a touch.

But I would also rather see both cars on the same line and as close as possible, but if they were to separate Id like to see the chase car cut the line a bit to tighten back up before the run is over.

I hear ya on that. That's also somewhat responsibilty of the lead driver to slow-up if the cars behind him aren't keeping up - if it's a power difference thing or something, who knows.

yea at the advanced clinic they had at clubloose towards the end of the year. we spent the whole morning working on lead car lines. And how it would help keep everyone else tighter. granted i think a few of the drivers thew what they learned in the morning right out the window after the morning session was over.
