    Default Hep Me Not Do It Again

    I'm new to the wreck-um derby stuff, and would just as soon avoid it in the future. Unfortunately I triggered one in the ITS race last Sunday. I feel really bad for the cars that I got into. I found one of the other drivers afterward and told him how sorry I was (he was fine with it). Didn't know who the other car was until after I reviewed the video. If you are or know car 57, I'm really sorry about your rear bumper.

    My problem is that I don't really know if I caused it, nor what I would do differently next time. I got surprised by the heavy braking of the first car I hit, then I thought we'd all drive through it and was really surprised by the second. Am I a dork or did we all just get very unlucky? Let me know how you'd do things differently.

    In case it matters to your evaluation, my logging shows my corner entry speed at 10 MPH slower than all my other laps.

    Thanks,
