Well, a little (a lot actually) persistence paid off again. I got my second "real" gold license test medal (B-4) (B-1,B-2 and A-7 do not count as "real" gold, but I got B-7 earlier). Interestingly the car is the same, a Nissan Silvia, in both B-7 and B-4. |
The run was rather hairy. I chopped so much off the apex of the turn , and my wheels were so solidly on the grass that I thought I'd probably be disqualified, but lose too much time even if I wasn't. And in the replay my line looks rather U-shaped as opposed to the ideal parabola. |
As seemed to happen a couple of times before, I got gold after almost resigning myself to not meeting the goal that evening--I sort of relaxed a bit. I'd done 24.811 early in the evening (gold is 24.800), and sort of surprised myself with my 24.784--a "golder" gold than my first one which was only .005 seconds under. |
