Thank you! Still more wrenching to do but hoping to get that ratio as close to 100% driving and 0% wrenching as I can

Yeah, well sadly you have to wait until the January issue of the Super Chevy magazine.

I've been comparing my own data to the last time I was at SOWS and except for two high speed turns that are more of a car comfort / balls thing the car went around a lot faster with a lot higher G's than the last time I was there. Turn 1 and turn 10 which are both at the end of a high speed section, neither myself or Marry P. came close to the speeds I was carrying back in 2011. Seems I was either fearless or maybe a few hundred laps on the old setup gave me a high level of confidence on the high speed stuff :p

I'm sorry you missed it too Ron. IMO you didn't miss anything Monday. Monday was the slalom and skid pad and running the cars through those for the magazine was pretty boring as a spectator. Tuesday was a lot of fun though. Much more fun as a spectator to see these cars out on the course. Also, more fun to be able to take your own car out there.

It was fun to compare my track data against Marry Pozzi's driving too.

The first time I got to hear my own car come down the straight redlining second gear I about jizzed my pants!!! lol. I didn't have the coolest engine their and there were folks making more power, but damn did my car sound good coming down the straight!!
