Took a while, huh?  But must taste so much sweeter knowing this could have been, and surely might, be bettered!

  Yeah , we think there's more, data log shows 60% tps and wheel spin then backing off to 35% and rpms going up at 35%. So, a little slower on throttle and not getting sideways on start might do it.

 Troy will try to post videos when he has time.

   Troy's not the only one with an exciting run.

   Following troy in his motorhome ON 99 BANG left tire on truck blew out.  Truck and trailer crossed up could see whole side of trailer in mirror, steering like crazy halfway straightened out but trailer weaving a lot, slowed down to side of road but no place to pull over. Troy saw what happened and pulled over so followed him at creep speed about a mile on rim. Finally got the spare down and only about 5 miles to tire shop and 4 new tires and $1400 later.

 I've had several blow outs on the trailer and sometimes never know it. I thought i was going to wreck.

It was a great weekend, great track no problems with traction in 3rd gear.  I was a little too aggressive with the throttle and really trying to go fast at this meet.  Mission accomplished with more on the table.
