Lines need work, shift linkage is sloppy, and steering gear ratio needs attention. Other than that keep at it. We've all been there at one time or another .

lol. Thanks! Yes, should have mentioned this was my first track day. I'm running more power than talent, so I was little timid with the track and was getting out of the power band. Just started taking on corners this year. Pointers welcome!

Here is another video. This past September, we ran the truck in the Targa Newfounland. It was the first truck to ever do it. There were a lot of naysayers, but we did it and surprised everyone, even ourselves to be honest. Enjoy the video.

If interested look-up Targa Truck on fb, or google it.

cheers,
bovey
