It's funny how little of the story people get when an old video resurfaces. After watching this, I have to say, such an improvement! Keep it up and go and take that lap record!
+Quanta - Attempting to Play Games Thank you for looking a little deeper. Delaying judgement is indeed a sign of a wise man. Appreciate the encouragement... gonna get it with the next set of tires for sure... Cheers.
Huge improvement...and you're not riding the shifter anymore and took the loose items out of your car. Amazing how much you can learn in a few short years.
I like how people talking so much shit on your old video fail to check out your channel and see your improvements. I imagine now you've improved huge leaps and bounds over that video especially seeing that this one is in 2015 and you're killin it. Keep it up man, perfect car for time attack! From a fellow S owner. Also if you're in TX I might run into you at the track one day!
+ACDCKISSACDCKISS Nice! Congrats on being a rare intelligent person with an s2k. I am hoping to get into spec miata soon... I hope we meet but not run into each other out there one a circuit soon. Thanks for digging a little deeper. Cheers.
I watched your fail compilation first, very satisfying to watch this video afterwards, lol. Would still suggest lowering your hands to 9/3. Also, just out of curiosity how tall are you?
5'7" My steering wheel has bumps that conform to your thumb... at like 930 and 230... there is something in the way at 9/3 that prevents you from being able to wrap your fingers around... I tend to like the position but I am curious if there would be better control if it were designed 9/3.
+idamon Try resting your thumbs on the notches at 9/3 and they should fit right in. Your s2000 stock steering wheel (as well as most aftermarket steering wheels) have these notches designed just for this purpose :)
+seraphimsg Great advice... I usually prefer to have one thumb locked around the notch and the other more loose... I do not know if it helps... many people say to have both thumbs not wrapped around at all... and running parallel to the wheel surface... to allow better maneuverability. But, I prefer to wrap one thumb around, usually left thumb.
Night and day compared to your 2013 video. Nice to see a driver making progress on track!

As someone who's had to go through somewhat similar experiences, I'm really happy to watch this after your "fail compilation" #Respect
+seraphimsg Good to know that I am not the only person who has learned by doing... Thanks. Cheers.
I also just watched your "2013 fail" compilation, and then watched this. Big improvement, keep up the good work!
+FCustureri Thanks mate. Cheers.
well done mate, you've come a long way :) don't stop chasing the dragon ;)
+Matthew Ng Appreciate it. Cheers.

+Brett Smith Indeed. Thanks for the encouraging words. Cheers.

That would definitely be something I wouldn't mind getting into myself, good luck! Definitely hope I see you out there one time!
I just watch you fail compilation and after seeing this video just wanted to say very good job you're killing it!
+Carlos Martinez Thanks mate. Practice makes better. Cheers.
+idamon Same here ! You had a lot of balls to put that fail video on internet.
Didn't the S2000 suffer much from all those spins in the dirt/gravel ?
+Gurdil95 I have suffered a few wheel bearing failures... I am not sure if it is related to the offtrack events... but otherwise... no. Cheers.
Big improvement no doubt, nice to see, keep it up!
+Brakim Racings (Brakim Racing) Thanks. Cheers!
