GHIT 0398:  Andrew Purvis and his Coyote Swapped Fox Body

We met Andrew Purvis at our NY Safety Track track day with the brothers Korf.  During the event, Alan was lusting after Andrew’s Coyote swapped Fox Body Mustang and we all had a great time.  Even better, Andrew was able to catch Vicki’s spin intervention on video for us, lol.  Andrew is a big time car guy and obviously knows his way around a car and especially his Fox body.  We look forward to being passed by him at an upcoming event, likely with EMRA.  If you’d like to join us, go to https://www.emraracing.org/ for the latest schedule information.

Unfortunately, Vicki’s microphone cable was working intermittently during the episode so she may sound a bit off from normal.

We join Tweed Motorsport live from the season ending AER race at NJMP Thunderbolt.  Gary from Tweed Motorsport raced with us at Thompson (and for some reason is still talking to us) and agreed to be adopted for the AER event at NJMP and provide updates throughout the 14 hour race.  We hope this makes you feel like you were there or at least scratches the racing itch if your season is over.

Race Weekend Hangover

Post race hangover

DwD 0396:  Post Race Weekend Hangover Minimization

The post race (weekend) hangover is real, and it has nothing to do with what your drink of choice was during the weekend.  It often comes from a loss of sleep, a lot of activity, and the overuse of your adrenal glands during the weekend.  In the end, Monday or often especially Tuesday, you usually are in a partial zombie state and are from performing at your peak.  During this episode, we cover several ways that the weekends affect each of us and several ways that we use to help minimize the impact and duration of the post race hangover.  If you have any other tips or tricks, please let us know at [email protected]

DwD 0394:  How to Capitalize on Uphill and Downhill Areas of a Track

In past Dominating with Dawsons, we have talked about the affect that camber has on track driving.  During this episode, we go into the effect that uphill and downhill sections can have going into and coming out of turns.  We also go into how to know when you are at the limit and what Vicki is concerned about when pushing toward the limit in various section on a track.  I think we may have reached a new breakthrough for her and hopefully you!
