That is a bad thing? :D I too, think that the idea of a slalom element in a turn would be a different element. I also think this is separate from the pivot cone discussion and I am not a proponent of getting rid of pivot cones - they are just another element to deal with.

I'll host with Kendt.


pfft, what do you know from a road course Rob? i might have to actually volunteer for this one. seriously do we want a course designed by a Smurf and a Lilliputian? :twisted:

It looks like CCR is doing something similar tomorrow at CMP. Anyone going? Looks like they are using the entire track.
