Another reason that I didn't state why I chase down the gearbox is that with muscle memory, you will more often have errors grabbing the gear you are used to grabbing in a certain location on track and if the conditions have changed for that event or day or even lap you are more prone to the error of not grabbing the gear you need. Heck, conditions changing could mean you even had more grip and have a higher than normal entry speed that is controllable so 3rd would be better than 2nd.
If that sounded a little like one long run-on sentence it's b/c I haven't had a chance to down my coffee this morning and have a 1 and 3 year-old screaming for my attention. Ah, the joys of weekend mornings.......

I guess it is something I need to practice and learn, thanks Dell.
I just woke up after watching the F1 race until 6 am, had a little coffee, and here I am
What so abnormal about that
