I don't do facebook but I'd guess about 10% better going forward. Purely a WAG.  :? :? :-D

Forward by 15%.
That windshield is a brick forward, but a cliff backwards. Lots of drag backwards.
Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.

Steve was very close, but he had to vote on our facebook fan page to win the hat and shirt. Do you have a facebook page Steve?
