it was a good day. I cant believe how far im going with only a 100 shot. And its tuned for a 200 so it is not optimized for the 100. Also the track went away at the end of the day.
Got to pull the clutch out and clean it up. Think i glazed it on the last pass.

Yeah not to take away from the Auto guys, but doing that while rowing your own gears is pretty badass.
