Two weekends ago was the weekend of the Hoosiers scrubs - can't go wrong with free, right? I started saturday on some high heat cycle Hoosier SM7.5s from 2020. By sunday morning I had corded them, so I switched to the next donated set - also some Hoosier SM7.5s from 2017.
The T1 mishap in this video happed on the first lap out on the 2017 hoosiers. I took my normal line through the carousel (T2) and through T1. I normally ride the T1 curbing with no issue. However, these were quite old and quite cold hoosiers, and they weren't up to the task to holding the rear through the curbing - yes, I should have known better and have taken it easier through there.
Thankfully, I managed to stay focused enough to release the brake once I realized I wasn't hitting the wall, which I genuinely thought I was hitting, to let the car rotate back around and unwind the wheel back straight. I'm glad this learning experience was just a scare and nothing worse.
