Big Red did have a transponder for the second set of runs. I asked one of the guys in the timing booth right after Big Red came in.... he said the lap was 1.58.XX

I have the event logo file already and there will be several hundred shots left over after Hot Rod and CP take their share.

I know a graphic designer....

V---- right there.

Heres some racepak data screen shots from my fastest lap.
One shows lateral g, one for speed.

It cuts off 12.. which is the fast end of the long straight.. what was that, 114mph?

1.2g for the lefts is pretty good... now to the the rights that good.

I wonder if a real alignment would have helped some.

Too bad the transmission finally died in Velocity, I couldn't find my way through all the autocross gates, and the GG Nova had to survive to drive to Phoenix that night. Let's see...have I left out any excuse for being piss-slow? Nah...that ought to do it. Oh well...more inspiration for next year!
The upside of loosing 3rd and 4th gear in Velocity is that now I know it will run exactly 84mph in second gear on the rev limiter at 6500rpm. I'll bet she is glad I finally got tired of that action!

Cool car. Glad the Nova made it to Phoenix.

I think next year will be even more competitive and better times.

Bret, how many miles did you say you put on Velocity this year? 8,000? It was an amazing amount!
