Highlights from this episode include:

1)\\xa0 We go into the details of the HPDE group 2 and compare it to the HPDE 1 and HPDE 3 groups.\\xa0 We also try to summarize the various drills that we did during the weekend.

2)\\xa0 Jennifer (and Vicki) have a difficult time prepping for a new track and since this was Jennifer\\u2019s first time at Mid Ohio, we worked our way through it, but we need to work on a better plan.\\xa0 Bill has ideas.\\xa0 Stay tuned.

3)\\xa0 Vicki tries to break a very bad habit that is really holding her back.\\xa0 She has a difficult time staying at full throttle until the brake zone, especially in high speed areas.\\xa0 There are some aspects of racing that require a great deal of commitment and even a bit of courage to work through.\\xa0 Her resolve to break through did lead to a quality 720 at the end of the big straight leading into China Beach.

4)\\xa0 How did Bill earn a steak dinner that somehow turned into Crack Barrel Meat Loaf.
