Know Gus has already had some training and practice and perhaps a race weekend as John may have as well. That leaves Wahl, Shields and Daly in the steep part of the downforce learning curve when they do the SimRaceway winter series in mid December at Sonoma and mid January and February at Laguna.
Since none of us are spring chickens we figured we should check this off our bucket list before we get too old to wrestle these cars through a corner.
There should be lots of opportunity to put our good Skippy training to work while also teaching these old dogs some new tricks!
Both downforce and Advil will be our friends. :-)
Wish us luck!
