Brad,  You and the entire tent were all leaving when I arrived from the 800 mile drive there, so I wanted to relax a little.

Next time, I'll give you my video sunglasses to wear and we can put the windshield dvr in your car too. That way we'll have video like Jeff's, of your run.

Well heck yeah, do us proud. Great job. How did your times compare with older cars?

Not really good. Once my tires got hot it really seemed to slide, especially in that one sharp corner, but the brakes worked much better when they got hot. The 70 Charger looked totally stock ( stock sway bars etc) so to compare to that I was over 11 seconds quicker, but driver is also a factor?( maybe it was his first time?) I think I only got one run in that counted as I kept missing the corner and then the car started heating up too much to continue. To be clear I only won because I was the only e-body to try! :-[  Not exactly bragging rights! :grinno:

But the fact that you even tried with the car you have to drive back to Canada in is impressive.   :2thumbs:

Actually Viperboy never hit a cone on his 12 runs . . . .

Oh those poor tires.  Car is flat through the corners.  Too much for those tires to handle.  Guess I know what you will be saving for this off season!
