Looks like I was hitting 110.xx according to my calculations. I was on the rev limiter(6800) in 3rd after the first set of cones. Should of put that 7k pill in the car.
Yeah - that last run of the day in Penny on Saturday was the absolute highlight of the weekend for me - he beat the living snot out of that car and it was a sight to behold. Ok, two dead tires but to look under that hood after the run and see not one drip/leak or anything broke was just, well, er, wrong somehow. To hear the brakes cooling off after that run was kinda scary - but I guess that's how the big guys roll LOL!

Watching DSE's Ryan and Kyle drive like they stole those test cars all weekend was awesome too. Watching them tweak tire pressures, shock settings and refining their lines on both the road-coarse and the autocross was awesome. And sorry guys but definitely the two best sounding LS powered cars out there this weekend - hands-down.

Also noteable was the very understated SpeedTech Nova driven exceptionally well on the roadcorse - one of a handful able to really thread that car through the chicane on the front straight at speed on Saturday, without drama.

And then there's Todd..... there's just always something very poetic about watching you go out and beat on your car with that big-block under the hood. Looks like balls - sounds like balls - love the car! It was awesome watching you run the roadcoarse and really stretching her legs Todd - well done man!

My 2c,
G.
