Yeah man I would do it. You remember how embarrasing my 1/8th mile pass was. From a roll I had no issues walking from other FI 6 speed cars, for instance that yellow z06 I ran 20 times, suprised it held together lol.

I know alot of people give you **** for not running at the track, I wouldn't either until you swap to an auto.

btw JP, This video doesn't really do justice on your part at all. If you watch you stop is pull, In 3rd I think, (After he got a NASTY hit) but as soon as you miss 4th, of coarse he is going to slingshot away making 800+.

Post up new video when you get that 50 roll on, even hit.

i'm no sweating the video at all. i just posted it to post it and so pat could see it. he has a car lead, plus the hit while brake boosting. I hadn't even begun to spool. Spun 2nd, hooked 3rd and you can see when i hit boost i lock him up before i missed 4th.

we're going to rematch soon, both on race gas, and from a higher even roll

Mid 5's? I doubt that very much.

Is it possible on a perfect pass in great DA, blah blah blah...yes.

Is Pats car going to go mid 5's, I don't think so
