Thanks Ryan, that's the goal... maximize the friction circle and keep the car accelerating as hard as possible up the track. A techncial track like NCM really rewards smoothness. I was just having this discussion last week with some fellow NCM instructors that it is the only track I've driven (and I've driven a LOT of tracks) where there is a 10-15 second lap time delta in advanced run groups with like cars. Guys that overdrive corner entry, corner after corner, then are down 5-10mph on entry on 3 straights that are pretty long... all the sudden you have a guy who thinks he's driving the wheels off the car who is 10 seconds a lap off the pace.
