Ran the April 2 day school at Nelson no issues, just slow. First day was dry second wet but drying. First time in open wheel car. Running a FE car. 6 open wheels cars in school so no real traffic issues but some competitive passes were made.
Went to Beaver run 2 weeks ago, only one other formula car so turned into great testing day. Ran a few high 1:05s so about 7 seconds off FE record, was about 20-25 sec off FE record at Nelson during school. So I am feeling more comfortable in car and just doing what I can, learning as I go.
So I want to run a race in July wondering about grid size. The weekend is either Double regional at Nelson vs July sprints at The Glen. I think Glen turn out last year was pretty good say 25 cars vs half at Nelson.
I know it is difficult to predict but with a few calls closer to weekend I could get good idea. Should I not worry about it and just go to The Glen this is only 150 miles vs 250 for Nelson and I am not very fond of dirt paddocks. The Glen really is my home track and I am looking a 3 events there this year.
With a big track like the Glen I would think grid size perhaps less of an issue.
Hey turn one is pretty damn wide with asphalt runoff
Thanks
