First time on the track was my best, this years goal is to feel better than I did then. That's why we are going back to putnum.... Back to where I am comfy.
Street I count in town, once out I stop counting.
Good info.

On the track you should be changing gears at the same point on the track everytime. If you consistently change at each marker (reference point) you will always know what gear you are in by where you are on the track. After a while it just comes routine. You will know at a certain corner to down shift two (or whatever), then on a certain straight to upshift 3 gears. It becomes a routine.
