I had my first severe smoke experience on track. The last lap of the 2nd day, yesterday, during open lapping at Putnam Park. I had the stock PS2 tires, it was my cool down lap, the temperature was 40 degrees. I was tired and in 2nd gear, I should have been in 3rd gear for turn 8. I was forced to shift to 3rd just before the track out point, going uphill. My shift wasn't timed for smoothness and I was rewarded by a dense cloud of smoke, the likes of which I have never seen before. The first time, what a surprise and on the last lap, but I deserved it, my punishment for bad driving.
