The Don v. The Modena at the Glen
- Thread starter RSO 34
- Start date
Maybe the modena was scared Don might rear end him so gave him the pass. :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:
Nice shots by the way Bob .... did you get any shots of the vintage car races ? My friend was up with his P4 and im sure he would be delighted if you got some shots of him on the track.

OK, now I'm really confused, I just looked at the pictures again, and Don is passing this F car on the straightaway, was the F car parked, or stopping, because there's no way that any NSX, not to mention one driven by our beloved "The Don" would pass a properly driven Modena on the straights 
Superior instructional technique. I have on good authority that Don was told by his instructor to stick to this Ferrari's tail in turn 11 and the pressure would be too much for him to bear, hense the point-by pass.

If the corner exit speed of car "A" is greater than that car "B" then car "A" passes car "B"

Remember who was driving, it has nothing to do with corner speed. If what you see is indeed true (and I believe it is)I tend to believe that maybe it was the instructor who was driving, not Don!!!

Maybe Don should just stick to acting ?..... :biggrin:
Congrats Don,
Very Cool.

From the second picture, it seems that the F360 not only holding up the silver nsx, but the Porsche and the vette too.
More likely a track newbie with an instructor.... Happens all the time at HPDE.
like I remember the second time I was at the track without instructor, I was getting passed by Miata, Focus (they are driven by good drivers). No busted ego, just part of the learning...
Being said, it's always nice to have pictures of 360 by our car
