Turn 1
Jefferson Circuit driving notes (counter-clockwise)
Most every turn here is a late apex and off camber. There are 2
decreasing radius turns, 4 and 7. There isn't a lot of runoff
anywhere.
From pit-out check your mirrors and move left as soon as it is
safe. Set up on the left edge of the track proper. DO NOT use the
extra pavement. It is rough and can literally snatch the wheel out of
your hands, especially under braking. Braking zone starts at the end
of the cross-over road. Turn in right for turn 1 when the left front
tire gets to the dip in the pavement. Apex is near the end of the
rumble strip. It's also blind because of the hill and late. I can't
use too much power here because the track is bumpy and I get
wheelspin.
As soon as the car settles turn in left for turn 2. The apex is almost
at the end of the concrete curb.
As soon as the car settles turn in right for turn 3. The apex is almost
at the end of the concrete curb. Straighten out and get on the gas.
Brake hard as you near the edge of the track. There is a dead tree
that I aim toward. Turn in left and aim for the apex of turn 4 which
is almost at the end of the concrete curb. Try to hit the apex with
the left front tire. Get on the power and let the car drift out to
the right. If you do it right the right edge of the track will come
to you, go away from you and come back again. If you do this right it
can be taken flat out in my car. Stay right after you finally track
out.
The approach to turn 5 is downhill. Turn 5 is the fastest one on this
track and the key to a fast lap. It is mostly on camber. I need to use
a lot less brakes here. Turn in left when your right front wheel hits
the dip in the pavement. Get on the power as soon as you make the turn
in. There is a nasty dip right at the apex. It doesn't bother the car
so just deal with it. Track out all the way right. You can use the
extra pavement here if you want to. As best as I can remember it's the
only place where it's useful. Check mirrors and point faster cars by.
Flare left as you head down the back straight til about the middle of
the track to make a straight line thru the kink called turn 6. Clip
the end of the concrete curb on your right and brake hard in a
straight line for the apex of 6. I line up with a telephone pole on
the other side of the track. Downshift to 3rd. I get on the gas again,
very briefly.
Brake hard in a straight line heading for the right edge of the track
near the top of the hill. Rotate the car hard left and get on the gas
as soon as it comes around. Clip the late apex near the end of the
left curb and track out all the way right. You can use the pit road if
you want to. Shift up to 4th and cross over to the left to set up for
turn 1. Watch for cars coming out of the pits. Check mirrors and point
faster cars by.
