 The conversation here is barely scratching the surface, if that. Bogacki's site has three years worth of in-depth writing from many of the sport's very best - a lifetime of knowledgebase and resources. Give it some serious consideration.Quote:

Re: Top End Tactics
I had a race last year that stands out. I was dialed 12.00, My opponent was dialed a 12.15. I think he had my about .01 on the tree. As we got to the 1000ft stripe I finally caught him and was starting to come around, I took a look to see if I had him covered when I noticed he was looking right at me with a big smile and was wagging his finger back and forth. It took a second to realize that he was not giving me the bird but it was more of a "no you don't" finger wag, Thats when he dumped me like a sack of potatoes. I took the stripe by a car length and broke out by .002.
We raced again a couple months later and I didn't fall for that again, LOLO

Re: Top End Tactics
Luke's site; http://www.thisisbracketracing.com/
My tactic's, try for the best light I can, dial close and run it out. If I'm taking too much stripe I tap the brakes on the first line. Then..I say over and over, "gimme the white ticket, give him the yellow, gimme the white, give him the yellow" as I'm heading for my time slip. LOL! |
