There is a saying 'better to have taken part and lost, than not to have taken part at all' true in some cases but in reality, bullshit! We all want to win no matter what, that is why we do it!  I didn't race to make up the numbers I wanted to win! |
I think you might be right, once I fit a video camera in and have the capacity to time I might start chasing times. So, my attitude might be reflective of capacity. I just tend to try to pass certain cars. I also check my speeds at specific points on the laps. I always try to do a bit better. I also get rather pissed off if somebody passes me.
