Not sure what your experience has been, but when I have run with FSR in the past (in White), the groups have always been big but there have been very few problems. I would hope in Black and Red with the improved situational awareness that the flow isn't too compromised. I'll just keep my arm pointed out the window when I see you guys coming...
![]() Should be a blast, regardless. |

I ran in both red and black at the Zone 2 event in March. I am trying not to come across as being too negative but black had issues. The group had a lot of cars and several cars seemingly refused to give passing signals. Painful to say, but I saw the same train of cars in several run sessions. I have some video where there were 5-6 car trains for 6 laps in the row, so basically half the session...... ![]() Red on the other hand was the complete opposite. Early and predictable passing signals even when you approached a group drivers that you know were working hard to stay with each other. Great flow with a lot of cars. |

If this happens again, I think most of us, at least myself and Dell, will definitely pull into the hot pits and make it known that it should be addressed; there is absolutely no reason for that in Black.
If a driver doesn't have the SA to recognize faster cars coming through, then they are in the wrong run group...plain and simple..and its not about ego either; I've pointed by much slower cars than me before, often! ![]() |

As if I needed a point by from you; do I need to repost how you took off on the back straight?
![]() Larry is not exaggerating with his screen name, "Landjet." I also agree with Scott. If we run into issues, I will be a little more forthcoming to the drivers personally first, then to the chief if it persists. I actually generally enjoy the traffic more so than open track, keeps my concentration up. Traffic becomes an issue when the speed differences are too high. In red during Zone 2, although there were quite a number of cars, the speed differences weren't huge, and as Bman mentioned, drivers were better with situational awareness.

We have to drop the dogs off at the kennel, so we won't be able to hit the road until about 1:30-2pm. If that works for you, I would be happy to caravan. |

That may put us right into Richmond rush hour. I'll be in touch over phone as I know how my day is going, I may actually be late (as I always am hitting the road to VIR) and we may hook up
