    Hey on the new chat thread (again). :)

    I think something seriously itchy bit me today. I've put hydrocortizone ointment on it and then I scratched and scratched and scratched. 2 or 3 little bumps make me unable to think.

    It took me 15 minutes to get this typed.

    Runnin' like Hell from a cheap motel
    And I don't care where and I don't know much
    But I do why..
    Gotta feel that high..
    Gotta feel that high..

    Wherever I go, whatever it takes
    No I won't slow down 'till I feel that way
    I'm a desperate man..
    That's what I am..
    That's what I am..

    Always on mind, see it in my eyes
    Won't me let me sleep when I lay down at night
    I'm addicted to the thought of you, can't say goodbye
    That's what it's like chasing Stardust

    A dream like this ain't fading away
    I can almost taste it rushin' through my veins
    Feels far away..
    So far away..

    Always on mind, see it in my eyes
    Won't me let me sleep when I lay down at night
    I'm addicted to the thought of you, can't say goodbye
    That's what it's like chasing Stardust

    I have this issue. It's a psychological thing, I think.
    Because last autumn when I ate a large quantity of infused coconut oil I didn't feel fucked up but was told by other people that I sounded slightly drunk. But in my head.. My thoughts were coherent and normal.

    When I was a teenager I had a few experiences with edibles that were NOTICEABLE and I know what that felt like. Don't seem to be able to get that now.

    The guy behind me, we are good competitors on the track, we are around one another a lot. I could see he was playing the tire saving strategy, being about 2 tenths a second slower than me. He did it in the first long run and made it back to me with better grip. This time I really went hard to get a gap, I was 3.2 secs in front of him and at the end of the race I beat him by 0.3 seconds so was close. I was determined to not let his smarter strategy beat me though lol.

    are close wins more exciting, or do you like to have a clear lead?

    Definitely exciting but intense.

    You've got a lot to think about when you are seconds out front. You start feeling things, hearing things... tires don't feel right, is my engine down on power???

    Also, when you are well out in the lead all you really are waiting for is some stooge to bin their vehicle, bring out a safety car and all your hard work gets brought back to nothing, gotta pit, intensity rises again. Gotta work out in your head, if I beat this car off pit lane am I going to restart in 3rd or 4th? Even numbers restart outside row, generally the slowest lane, so you may have to "accidentally" lose a spot on pit road to get the inside lane...

    Today was 100 laps, there was a crash on lap 6, restart lap 10 and went 90 green flag laps without a break. My team mate won by 8 seconds over my other team mate, 11 secs I was in 3rd from leader. He clearly cleaned up, but that's what he does, he's one of the best long run racers getting around.

    Me... I was clearly going into the turns too fast, wore my front tires out especially right front which is the most critical tire because all the weight and pressure goes into it. We actually people blowing their RF tires in that one.

    I guess, the longer a "run" goes (amount of laps without a pit stop / caution flag) in racing terms we say this... The cream rises to the top.. You basically start to see the people who know what they're doing, make their way through the field or maintain at the front end.

    A lot of guys, they think racing cars is going as fast as you can every lap. But that's not NASCAR, that's sports cars. In NASCAR tires are EVERYTHING! tires, win races. If you can't figure out how to drive 50 laps on a set of tires without burning them out you're never gonna win a damn race.

    So the better, more experienced guys know how to. I'm not quite there yet. But I'm better than most. :)

    Yes I see. I like that there are strategic elements, things you have to think about..
    It's probably quite good exercise for the mind. Quick thinking.
    one of the things I hate most in regular drivers, on the road is hesitation and dithering.

    And it's interesting. There's no point putting down your fastest 10 laps at the start of the race.

    Let's say youre putting down 30second laps while everyone else ja doing 30.2s laps. In 20 laps you're going to get out to a 4 second lead. But if the guys who are doing 30.2s a lap at the beginning fall off to 33.4secs a lap on lap 20, and you've burned your tires off in 20 laps and are now doing 34 second laps, then you're going to get swallowed up big time in 10-15 laps and we aren't even out of fuel yet.

    And that's that misconstrude perception you need to learn. Going slower is actually going faster.

    But you can't go too slow either lol.

    You gotta be fast enough while going slow enough to be fast enough later. :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:

    I think a Pot Shop opened near me. Looks like a house but there are Green led lights decorating the front and I think a sign that read Come In.

    Well that is intriguing. Whatever it is, you must "Go In" and tell us.
