Thanks guys. Here are the splits, video is just being optimized.

60.....1.614
330 4.483
1/8 6.857
MPH 105.70
1000 8.897
1/4 10.600
MPH 133.03

Still lots left-car was set pretty rich-you'll be able to tell in the video. Still need lots of shift time-really rusty this year as this is only my second time out. When Sled builds my forged 346 over the winter than I'll really lean on her.

Here's the vid:

I think it was my crappy driving for the low mph-I was figuring I would be around 136.

That was a great looking pass!

No cage? Do they give you a hard time?

Actually it's funny you mention that. I was told there getting really strict this year at TMP. All they told me to do was wear a long sleave shirt instead of my t-shirt. But I do plan on getting a cage over the winter.

Oh man...I love that track! I'm a one pass wonder now. No cage =

Your car runs almost as good as it looks. Very nice.

Yeah very cool. It sounds like you still have a couple of tenths left in it from shifting faster. Sounds like you let off a bit in between shift.
