looks like I will be leaving as soon as Pilson is ready to roll. The Ga/Fl line is a 7 hr drive at legalish speeds. and this is just shy of the line

in my car, 2nd redlines at 55mph, 3rd at 81mph. I shifted to 3rd before the first slalom at the start. and only dropped to 2nd for the turn around. I never took my eyes off the course to see what RPM I was turning but it seemed to be revedup well. It's the overall highest speed course I've ever run,...

If memory serves, we said we would not give event trophies to single car entries in a class, but would continue to give an annual trophy. Reason -- not really the fault of the entrant that no one else shows up. Correct me if I am wrong. that's what I thought... thanks.. time to head towards floriduh

If you find paying an extra $60 to have some rollers run across the tires and then driving it just the same as a break in heat cycle to scrub off the mold release works for you, then...
