Mr. Campbell .... Have a snickers. Little touchy.
I wasn't talking about any race in particular.
It was a general comment relative to the fact that during a race, drivers have to make split second decisions based on how a race is shaping up. Who's in front of me, who's behind, who's spitting it, who's pumped up?
Should I back this thing off, should I try to catch the field napping and grab a couple of open lengths as we turn for home, should I get out now because if I don't, I'm going to get shuffled back to last and have to circle the field, should I stay in because the horse in front of me is pulling the drivers arms off and when he turns him loose, I'm good to follow and pop out in the last 1/8th.
Like in most sports, the greats are usually one step and one thought ahead of the average competitor.
