George, You need more rebound in your shocks. That will prevent it from bouncing like it does. If you notice Judsons car, it doesnt bounce to the extent that you do. Stiffen the bump so that it doesnt slam down, and then stiffen the rebound to prevent it from bouncing again.

BTW, very <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Nice George!
That was so badass seeing dual wheelstands at the same time and both carried about the same length! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
I have video of your run vs the SAM SS from the rear standing behind the left lane water box, looks pretty cool from that view.
Justin will do the posting of my videos since I have no way to do it, I gave my tapes to him today so it won't be much longer now.
BTW, It was nice to meet you.

Default A couple of videos of my car from the TR Shootout

The first one is me and Judson (S.A.M. SS) during time trials on Saturday.

Me & the SAM SS

This one is my 10.11 pass...

My 10.11 @ 131mph pass

Yes, the mufflers were off the car for that one if you can't tell by the sound. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Each video is ~2mb...

For those having trouble viewing them, I've also saved them in .wmv format.

Me & the SAM SS
My 10.11 @ 131mph pass

They are encoded with the DiVX codec, so some folks may have to update their Windows Media Player to view them properly.

If everyone has problems, I can try to use a different codec...
