Well today I got the chance to practice a bit in a 2001 Celica GT-S before AutoX later this month. There is a fairly long, EXTREMELY curvy backroad on the outskirts of town that has been shut down since the flooding last year. Basically it's 4 miles of perfect practice road, then a long straight to slow down and turn back before a missing bridge. My boy decided he wanted to go and run the road for some practice and took me along. After 3 down and back runs he turned it over to me so I could show him some tricks. It started out like normal, then I knew it. I was in the "ZONE" soon I was shifting and moving the vehicles weight like it was my own. I notice when I get this way it doesn't seem real it's like I am doing nothing but driving. My mind goes blank and it's more like I am a passenger watching this but not doing it. I didn't see the curve infront of me, or the next I was looking so far ahead I was really looking to the pinpoint of pavement ahead and tracing it with my eyes. My body meanwhile was seamlessly tracing my eyes directions hitting perfect entry points and using the brakes, transmision, and weight of the car perfectly to trace the curve with max speed. Finally the straight came into view and it was like I zoned back. I slowed down and looked at my buddy explaining how to shift the car around like I was doing. But he stopped me mid sentence and said "Dude, I didn't know this car could do that" Aparently we hit speeds in excess of 85-90. I didn't even realize it. I do this when I get serious, do any of you guys get the same way sometimes?
