and it's the only safe way through a corner. If you are   <span =

the line is the only place that   the laws of physics permit your car to =

they say in any good driver's meeting "if you are   not at racing speed, =
get off the line". Several years ago this guy who drove a   car at what =
I considered 3/10s asked me why I always passed him so closely. I,   and =
the entire race group, generally lapped him at least twice, sometimes   =
three times. He was driving the line, precisely. Just where his driving  =
 instructor told him to drive. And he never deviated from the line. I   =
considered him the most dangerous thing I would encounter in any day on =
the   the track. I was thrilled when he quit "racing". In contrast, when =
you come up   on a gaggle of FV's battling it out, they might be 20 MPH =
slower than you, but   they need to be where they are. Nothing =
but&nbsp;respect&nbsp;for that, lift   and wait.&nbsp;</div>  =
<div><br></div>  <div>If you aren't at the limit, then you are blocking =
the only safe path   through the course at speed. the guys who are =
coming up behind you can't tuck   in behind and wait for you to finish a =
corner--they'd have to stand on their   brakes to do that, and that's =
dangerous in any racing condition. As Burt Levy   might say, the other =

dangerous     driving<br><br>Speaking of dangerous driving situations, =
&nbsp;two weekends     ago I raced at<br>Buttonwillow in my TR3. &nbsp;I =
had new brakes that needed     bedding. &nbsp;This meant I<br>needed to =
heat up my brakes in the first     practice session, let them cool =
so<br>I could have good braking power for     the rest of the weekend. =
&nbsp;I was in the<br>first group so at 8:30am, I     told the proper =
official-type guys what I needed<br>to do and started in the     back. =
&nbsp;I'm also running a fresh engine and feeling<br>that out as well.   =
  &nbsp;Anyway, after about 3 or 4 laps I'm just about done<br>bedding =
the     brakes and I'm about to get lapped. &nbsp;This is the first     =
"Warm-up"<br>session of the weekend. &nbsp;A red 2002 is approaching me =
and     I waved him to the<br>left and moved to the right a little bit, =
while     staying pretty close to the<br>line. &nbsp;Next thing I know =
the guy is     passing me on the right ON THE DIRT at<br>full speed. He =
re-entered the     track, got a little squirrelly, threw some<br>rocks =
onto my car and kept     going. &nbsp;This guy was racing hard with a =
yellow<br>P1800 and not letting     up one bit. &nbsp;He didn't want to =
sacrifice his lap time<br>when     overtaking me. &nbsp;The level of =
aggression took me by surprise and made     me<br>angry. &nbsp;It was, =
after all the morning warm-up and I truly did my     best to get<br>my =
job done safely and get off &nbsp;<br>the race track.     &nbsp;&nbsp;I =
tell my friends and family, when they ask if it's     =
&nbsp;<br>dangerous, "You see, it's a gentlemen's sport and there's no =
prize     money."<br>I would say that most of the drivers are safe and =
respectful of     their<br>machines and their abilities but all it takes =
is one douchebag move     and<br>you're in big     =
