After reading this message, I thought about whether to try myself in free. There has always been a craving, and now there is to take part in auto sports, albeit at the level of dummies.
In general, this evening I went to bed thinking whether I should go or not the next day to embarrass myself :)
Sunday. 9.30 am. Got up. I walk around the apartment, ready to go, BUT I'm still thinking. And then I decide! I think: "Yes, how long can you already? It's time to start taking decisive action a little!"
At eleven o'clock I already start to pack, when the rega is from 11 to 12 in the morning, and it’s decent to go to the highway.
The time is 11.05 and I only warm my car in the garage :) there is already a slight tremor :)
Time 11.15 I leave the city and take the path to the Red Ring! On the new bypass around Krasnoyarsk I go about 150-160 km / h. Velikova, BUT this road in our area is a standard in terms of road surface, the car itself asks to open the throttle a little more :)
The further everything is boring. I arrived at the ring at 11.50, immediately go to the reception and register. Immediately I see that besides me, 2 Foresters are declared :) (it turns out that this is the same car only with different drivers). I go out and start putting my finger to my nose :) And then the forik catches my eye like an evil, it turns out he is the champion of the current season on Peschanka! ( Gerbil is an annual amateur competition on a frozen lake / i>). I immediately understand that there are no options :)
Then I took up the assessment of my car. What we have:
-winter Velcro Bridgestone pretty umotannaya (4th season :)) -Front
-wheel drive
-Heavy trough (besides the drain, how much Shumkov is glued)
-First time on the track
-No pilot experience!
I could not find the pluses :) Well, okay! Will learn!
Then there was a 4-hour wait. The closer to the arrival, the stronger the excitement. And that's it.
Arrivals begin in the "free" class. As a result, 2 pilots were announced for a Subaru Forester, a VAZ 2108 on a spike with a pilot Arkady Tsaregradtsev and a Subaru Lancaster with a pilot already in years (well done, he made up his mind and drove for himself!) The
races were carried out along a small ring clockwise, you can look at the redring. ru only it is slightly changed. Added chicane at the bottom of the picture.
I'm leaving. I begin calmly. Some thoughts on how to go there. Read magazines :) BUT no experience! I accelerate quietly, the first, second and first turns. Immediately takes the muzzle to the gun! turn nimaga! braking, hitting a corner, short straight, right hairpin with bare ice! The car has a huge understeer! I'm shocked! :) how to go ?! Straight line, acceleration, a piece of asphalt, the car jerks and I seem to go into the right one, but it takes it to the road! What to do? On the following laps, I try to remove understeer by throwing my ass with the handbrake, but it's not very effective. The car floats sideways until it practically stops and then everything is repeated. And so on 6 more laps.
Well, okay, what do we have in the end! An invaluable EXPERIENCE that you just need to get further. As Arkady said, you need to roll and roll circles and understanding will come by itself. The car is not gonos and it's a FACT :) at least for me. We were very pleased with the girls who probably participated in the WTA (Women Time Attack) a week ago.
Most importantly, I had a good Sunday afternoon :) There is something to work on and something to strive for :)
Thanks to everyone who read it. Maybe messy and not clearly unsubscribed, but in a hurry it will go. I started writing at 21 o'clock local time, then my father called saying that he was stuck and I went to rescue him. Now it's already 00.00 :)
I would be glad if the discussion unfolded :)
Photos will be tomorrow. Can't just add them now. Internet is poor = /

PS: Toyota ED cramps pleased both with the beauty of the passage and the laying of a new route :)
Well, the class will be rear-wheel drive then) at the last stage, the 4ka vegetable gave heat. Frame theme =) Put it to the block or always wei and that's it) And it's not so scary to put a shuster on the snow.
Thank you Kolya. :) I'm already dreaming about next year and about a six with a Nivov block in the garage :) I tell my brother, let's weld the frame there, but for now he will resist :) Of course, the rear-wheel drive will in any case lose to the front-wheel drive on the ice, but for some reason you can improve yourself like a pilot.
Really terribly interesting :)
I don't know when the next race. Probably already on dry asphalt :) And about the rubber you're right! :)
www.radikal.ru/GALLERY/Pa..66ecf4fabb52f0ba0df2f4da9 from he is the hero of our story) but in general, for the first time on the ice, strike a point is clear, I just remember drifting on the ice) I went a little too far with the speed and you can't pull it out like you say until it stops ... On the ice on a good block, of course, you need at least fresh rubber) well done Romka, who made up his mind, I still do not have enough courage) make a shuster and storm time attacks. When is the next race?
ZY: on such rubber, of course, there is no way to do there, from the photo you can see that her bald head will soon reach Gorbachev =)
still 5k to the number =) yeah, on the podium the 1st, and the devanka is even at the 3rd, well done, it will be necessary for a loved one to go karting in the summer, otherwise there are no fast driving skills at all, and even more so in the snow.
Yes, a hornet is not scary at all. In the iron garage, the car is lying on it) well, everything is exactly the essence not to attach to the snow, but to walk cleanly and quickly.
The young boy generally cooked up :) he brought the first place in a velcro crap :) Defakhs also burned
And I didn't look into the future of nichir :) I was looking for a more or less suitable number :)
the kid is handsome.
Did you get a glimpse into the future? =) battle of extresensov =)

More photos from the event. There is only a face, my unshaven numbers are looking at :)
Greatwheels
I watch Arkasha 3rd, even though winter is not so good at it.
He says the hold is bad in winter. Well, in principle you can understand it)
Seryoga, yes, there seems to be no bad eight. brakes under 15 wheels and a Recaro bucket. the bank on issue is most likely a custom, but competent. and neat and not loud
I only woke up at 11 o'clock =) of
course it would be more fun ... and more excitement.
They promised some kind of race. Stopudo let's go
Had seen.
It was too late to make up my mind ... Well, after all, I created the topic at the Corolla club =) "sluggishly"
so I didn't really plan ... and went skiing ... I
already regret not going to the races!
But now I wondered why I didn't participate ...
Swept up =) but most likely a good result will need to be shown next winter ... on a gerbil including
Make up your mind is yes! You constantly get glasses on stupid reasons, but in fact you just have to start! :) let's burn! In the summer, of course, it is very difficult to compete on CC, but I think you can try a couple of trial ones)
here it is already necessary to decide ... I'm in thought!
Why, positioning the car for non-standard use, I still have not participated anywhere ... except for club and drag competitions
Yes, and you are not far :) only a pity to drive a car in these catacombs. But year after year do not fall in the snow!
well ... it clings to the snow more or less =) you need to train on a gerbil ... you are not far
The snow roll is mainly on straight lines, and even then in some places it is just ice broken by spikes from rubber. In turns, bare ice. does not go as if to go along the classical trajectory. in winter form, most likely you need to ride along the snow side clinging to the snow
I looked at the photo of the track ... as I understand it, it was mostly snow roll =)
really sorry that I didn't go ...
aka-mazai
Why didn't I participate ?! =)
Probably need to prepare the car better… that's damn bad luck then!
By the way, when I laid out I did not even think about a free class, an eternal "spectator" = (
Seryoga, yes, I'm tired of being just a spectator :) I decided to take the first step)
Greatwheels
saw, Roma rides on bald, incomprehensible rubber, but you have a yoka)
:) extreme driving :)
