Not sure if that was when finish was pointed at the trailer and we had cars getting all crossed up and getting close to the trailer. Nope that was not the one, I looked and I think the trailer at finish was 2012 or 2013

Nashville did that in the early 90 s. The drain plug fell out on my run. [emoji33] They haven't done that again, that I am aware of. :lol:

Here's my sloppy 2nd run... http://youtu.be/4if7t_cm8ys

I noticed A LOT of mistakes, so in turn a lot of time. Also, I shuffled TWICE which is a sure sign of some tight turns..... I never shuffle.

Good grief Luttrell .. no wonder you were so far off my pace .. there is summin bad wrong with your cars ability to put power down on exit..
I didn't get any video.. but my lines thru the saloms and walls were vastly different .. I'll say this one more time.. you missed the boat by not running and learning Toyos ..that explains and backs up what Kristo said was his problem too.. wow.

I had much better lines on my first run, uploaded this run because it's more entertaining lol. I don't really have these issues at Pelli, even when it's cool out. I think if we put 9s and 225 kooks on your car, you'd put down faster times than the 7s and the toyos.

Good job, everybody! No timing issue!

Good race in STR. Kinda proud of Heather for stopping for a down cone then winning on her rerun. That's how you do it.

I really liked the course. My favorite all year... The section before the down hill run was key...

The car looks faster, but you're still turning late. I think you're also too far off the cones on some of the turns. On the plus side, at 40 seconds, there's a shot of you looking out the side window for where the car's going to be rather than where it is now.

weather forecasting is sure an INEXACT science … it's now down to 20% for Sun … how much more will it change between now and then ? LOL
