i noticed that at Laguna Seca, it looked very unsettled all the way through the corners.

I have not watched all of the Lime Rock race yet, just got to see a few minutes yesterday, but will finish it up tonight.

the car looks like a drift car, its putting its tail out in every coner nad is bouncing a lot

it looked a little loose under braking too.

i hope they don't get too defensive, and start taking it too easy, the season is still young, and they still need victories.

I notice that too, in this 2 races everyone was braking deeper than the rx-8, in pass race the rx-8 had the avantage in braking by a long shot

yeah, Ham got passed under braking in turn 5 of the first lap at LS, which is not like him. my father could not believe that 55 pounds made much of a difference, but I really think it did. hopefully SS will rebound, and get back on the podium soon.
