Default 10's?

LOL, went to BMP and on the first run I blew the tires off spraying out of the hole. So Gator suggested activating the spray at about 15 feet.

Next run I got this:

60ft 1.60
1/8 7.0 @ 98mph
10.996 @ 122.28

I was so fuggin happy that I barely celebrated, lol!

3rd run i missed the n20 button and had to swipe it late resulted in a 11.01 @ 121 mph.

I have to get a lot more seat time, I also need to learn when I can hit the spray, love to ride it outta the hole. I think even with this huge 75 shot I could tun a 10.8 maybe a 10.7 with everything going right.
