Sufficiently slowed down to have turned, but on a road course its always safest to get off track pointing straight when possible to avoid a rollover. Plus it allows the adrenaline from the oh sh!t moment to pass and regain your composure.
That turn 1 section was pretty sketchy. You made the right decision! Hopefully the next time we are at Dominion that there will be some form of a sand trap before that wall.
A little sand trap/loose gravel wouldn't be a bad idea. In hindsight I wonder if I should have got off the brakes and turned in but that could have gone south.
What car and tires? The tires sound like high performance summer (street) tires? Engine has effortless power!
E30 BMW with a LS1 out of a 2001 Corvette. Hoosier R-comp tires
@@Zach33 Nice!! The squealing rubber threw me off a bit. That is a very sweet set-up.
Why the dislikes?
There are always the envious ones who feel the need to pipe in. Car sounds great, BTW
You handled that like a champ. Good job keeping the dirty side down! Looked like nice lap times too. What were you running? Looked like low 1:30's.
Thanks! Yes, shiny side up always. 1:33 is my personal best:th-cam.com/video/YrZzOjR92Wo/w-d-xo.html

LS swap?
yes, LS1
Sounds great, using Vorshlag's swap kit or something else?
I used the Sikky kit. Aluminum engine and tranny mounts, aluminum driveshaft, ceramic coated headers. Made that part of the swap much easier!
Nice, I noticed after asking that Vorshlag doesn't seem to have an E30 kit anyway.
