I spun twice at Pocono Friday.

added those two to my lime rock one a while back

needless to say, I need to work on my wet driving.

First one the second came kicked in mid corner to throw me out
Second I got light over a small crest and lifted too much which turned me around
Third was literally minutes after the second and I was just mentally out of it and really should have taken the rest of the session off

kfennell - turn 6 isn't the bad one because it is not common to lose it there, in her own words she simply was not paying attention and went off. Turn 7 however is something to worry about. Go too far off course and you start running into old refrigerators and stuff.

Late in the day, losing the light, probably a little tired and a change in road surface.



I just let the car detailing folks take care of removing the dirt I took home from the desert inside the car.

Cheers.

This is a compare/review video I made, but I used spin and offs to try to make it more interesting. ;) See the video's description on YouTube for more information.

I thought it would be fun to compile all of the in-car video of track spins or saves that my friends and I have been a part of or witnessed from 2016-2017 (mostly from my '08 Lotus Exige-S 240). See below for the newest installment, ISpinUwin#3.
