Love it!

I've driven that track so it was fun to try to imagine where you were... Sadly I was 5 turns back from you!

I'd say your advantage in front tire and weight makes it a pretty fair fight between the cars. It must be since it came down to less than .1.

I have a bigger tire, but the weight advantage is only about 175 lbs if Mark told me the truth.

Was not sure if that was brake bias or your down shifting without the clutch...now I know

My buddy played around a bit with his new phone app. Here are some cool shots from OUSCI.

The audio in this video is too good! Absolutely love the sound of that Mast motor through the range.
You're running the SS 605hp??

Yes, it is the Mast Motorsports LS3 416 SS 605 hp. Great power and range. That is why I picked this motor. For what I do, it is enough power.
I had a few people come to me and ask if it was 700+ hp. The trick is coming off the corner and throttle up as early as possible.

Brian, is that a HANS device I see in that video?

It sounds like it has a generous amount of usable over-rev?
Also, what did ECM are you using?

All said that motor package appears hard to argue IMO.

Congrats again on your Optima results.

Brian -- I just wish you were half as good at video as you are at driving!




Of course, this is coming from a guy that sucks at both of those!
