Wow. I was watching thinking how amazing this guy is. I can't even park that close to someone with my crappy depth perception and he's flat out right on the tail of that 911. Then "ol buggar."
Watching these vids really shows my just how horrible my driving really is. |

I've lived long enough to learn the hardway that confidence and hardwork doesnt always equal natural talent. I don't have that level of talent, but the young gun in me will still give it a shot!

Btw, did my proxy instructions work? There are those that say I suck at instructions.
|
didn't try them yet, but I definitely will. Natural talent will get you places for sure, but I wouldn't count yourself out. I think determination will give you the chances you need to build the skills required. One thing I have recently realized is you need a lot of patience and determination to get yourself comfortable with your car's handling (ie, dealing with and USING oversteer to your advantage. I am not there yet, but I got enough oversteer this weekend to get me comfortable in the under 60mph speeds). Once you make a break through in that, things don't seem to out of reach anymore!

My reaction at the speeds we are seeing in that video and my lack of good depth perception will always handicap me. I wanna go fast and will push this little miata as hard as I can, but a full out race car wouldn't be a good idea with someone that can't judge depth with precision. You will see how close he is on the 911's ass. I can't drive that close as I really can't tell 5' from 7' away. Let alone inches. I have caught many a flying object in the face growing up due to my awesome depth perception. One good thing is, I have one hell of a hard head as a result. :)

How to pass a slower crx who does not give point bys? Tailgate the absolute ---- out of him on fast corners: https://www.miataforumz.com/attachme...ine=1329237956 How do you get comfortable there? Well, you probably don't till someone bothers you enough that you can't find another solution. lol I didn't get a good SS, but I was close enough to him that you can't see the license plate. |
