I signed up for a driving class on June 14 at Thunderhill.

I watched a Spec Miata at Thunderhill on youtube and here's the plan of attach.

Start on front straight. Should hit 100+mph here on next lap.

Turn 1:
Brake near 1st brake marker and DS to 3rd
Go full ASAP and US to 4th

Turn 2:
DS to 3rd and it'll feel like a very late apex due to length of sweeper
Need to find midpoint and apex. See Lotus video or ask instructor.

Turn 3:
Stay in 3rd
Get back toward middle/inside by crest
Exit toward inside to prepare for turn 4

Turn 4:
Stay in 3rd
Late apex and look for near straight into 5

Turn 5:
Stay on outside(right) despite right turn coming up.
This gives extra space to run out if car drifts a bit.

Turn 6:
Get back on throttle ASAP and hold it

Turn 7:
Full throttle and US to 4th

Turn 8:
Ease off throttle but try to avoid braking

Turn 9:
DS to 3 and aim for middle of road on top of hill
Get back on throttle ASAP and stay that way until 10

Turn 10:
DS to 3

Turn 11:
DS to 2
Very late apex and exit on inside for turn 12

Turn 12 and 13
Exiting turn 11 on inside, look for near straight through 12 and 13
Get back on throttle ASAP for back straight
Clipping the inside curb of 12 seems OK in video

Turn 14
DS to 3

Turn 15
No braking needed
Should be able to stay near full throttle through the whole turn
Exit to front straight
