Of all the racetracks I've driven, I'd argue the climbing esses provide the greatest window into a driver's confidence in his/her abilities. You have to have a plan in place if you're going to attack the esses.
I agree fully. In another thread, I showed how Jim Mero was light years quicker through them than Tony Q in the 15 Z06 Z07 and the 19 ZR1. Not knocking too hard on Tony, but, if I had his time logged on VIR, was running for a number with coaching from GM's pro, I think I'd be on "FULL SEND" through them or at least closer to that.

You're doing it with your own car knowing you, the car, the track, and the risks associated. Impressive any way you cut it.
