    That video in the rain looked like a lot of fun; great driving! Nice little slides in there too.

    I still don't understand the hand shuffling though, if I shuffled my hands that much my driving would be super rough.
    Part of it is because Monty's suspension is still not completely refined to my liking. The other part is what kung fu jesus says.

    The trick is the desired result is the clock. If your lap times say you are fast shuffling the wheel, awesome. Fast while smooth, cool also. Just find a driving style that best fits you and your car's behavior that nets you the speed you require on command.
    Driving to the limit is my goal.

    You know, I've never thought about trying to compare my times using the different methods. I've always been one to stick and go hand over hand when needed and I've never had any major issues with crossing over or anything like that. I never thought that doing it the other way could be faster, even if it doesn't feel faster. Next time I'm at the track I'll try to do some comparisons!
