Just sayin' -- LOL

There may be a bit time to be had there, but that isn't what I'm talking about.

The thing about pushing hard there is if you screw up, you pay the price ALL the way through the slalom and that kills you...so I tried to tip toe through that section most of the time.

Here were the actual times of each run for reference:

44.611 clean
43.543 clean
43.377+1
44.629+1

I knew I had locked up the win after the second run so I got more aggressive on the 3rd and 4th runs. Both times (forgetting about the cones) I blew the same two sections.

Well when you put the camera on the other side of the car, hitting those cones became a lot more noticeable

Congrats on the win Lance!!!

You know...if you wiggle a cone and it stays upright and partly in the box...it's not a penalty right!

Thanks...

Good job, Lance!

Lance, once again thanks for the video. Car looks like it's working great, and the engine sounds VERY healthy. I'm looking forward to my first attempt at dodging cones, hopefully sooner than later. I've logged thousands of laps while turning left...I've never tried turning right. Your car rocks!

Couple of runs from Saturday's test n Tune course, few more chances to feel out the new horsepower on this course. Be sure to pay attention at the end of the second run.

You mean where it blows the tires off?

If it's not top secret, what tire pressures you running?
