Re: Travis Pastrana
You know what I don't understand, if it is a timed event, and the person with the fastest time wins, why do all that sliding through the corners on the pavement? I can understand why they do it in the dirt, but sliding around the pavement is a slow way to get around a road course. I would think nice clean lines with clear apexing would be much faster.

I was thinking the same thing, but at the same time its a high technical course with little room to gain exit speed, kind of like when you go karting, the cars have such pathetic power and the turns are so quick that drifting through and keeping momentum can be advantageous to taking the proper line (at times).
