    Low 2:3x's are what I'll be shooting for next time out. No doubt the car is capable of better, just slowly tightening the nut behind the wheel and getting feet wet with adjusting tire pressures/suspension for track conditions.

    I was hoping to get the car on the track this year... but it doesn't look like that's the case, as I have no job. I'll definitely be up there to spectate though!

    Dang, thats moving pretty well, the ama super bikes run 2:10-2:11. Its even crazier to think about the lap record of 1:39.866 by Dario Franchitti in a champ car. Man i wish those guys would come back (now just the IRL i think) , i never got up there to see them at RA. I probably won't be able to drive this year as the car isn't ready and i just got another car, lol. might be up to watch though.
