This
is one of the most satisfying spots on the track, if you got the first part of
Seven right: you can be at the absolute limit of lateral adhesion with just enough
forward to accellerate fully from here on out. It is a little off-camber, and
not easy to maintain, as evidenced in the tire marks leading into the dirt inside
Turn 7a. |
To our right rear,
out of view, is the link from Seven to the long straight. I call it 7a, but it
may be 7b in some sources. Ahead is the uphill to the crest before Turn Eight,
part of the Grand Prix (Long) Course, and of the NASCAR Course. The Vega didn't
accellerate much after beginning the incline, kind of like at Willow's Turn Two. |
