I had a bad day Yesterday...or did i?

Friday 2nd of April, heading towards Marina Circuit...

the day started very nicely, nice weather with cool breeze and peacefull streets. i was very happy that I had sorted all the issues out with the car before yesterday's trackday took place. yes It was ready for the trackday.i was also exited with my new set of semi slicks...

then the trackday started. ohh my God, i understood that street tires have got nothing to do with the track... i was faster than a ferrari F430 in intermediate class...till i broke the selector of my gearbox... :)

then u guess the rest of the history... recovery comes and takes the car bla bla bla

i came home, and opened the incar video i shot with the new camera mount i got from Lutfy.

when i saw the vids, i said ...........!!! i was rigth at the limit of the car. i was about to loose the control so many times at the 2 blind and fast corners of YAS circuit... damn, i was so exited that i could not realise my thrill which was driving me crayz... i was going out of control...

moral of the story:

i am sure i would have ended up with a crash or something if this small breakdown did not happen. and if it happened, i would say "i wish there was something like a breakdown to stop me before"

So, what i can say is, human being is always ungratefull... i was so till i saw the video... but now i think i am very very very lucky.

sometimes bad things may conduce to good things, or prevent even worse things from happening.

i am gratefull.

bruno: it was the shortshifter i suppose... i was not so kind on the gear knob however shortshifter also triggered the reaction

As i said on the phone... you have to take it easy bro... That was not your usual driving style... way tooo agressive... Smashing the gears like in a 59 model Hanomag Bulldozer, releasing throttle in corner... beeing way to agressive on the throttle anyway..loosing it several times in high speed where only luck prevented you from crashing badly!

You should thank that bold who prevented you from ruining the day big time..frame it and hang it in your room.. This bold saved you and the car that day!
You gotta take it easier man otherwise the car and even you wont last long!
