A couple of things to note: I was only able to make one pass at the track last night because I didn't have a helmet. I was feeling the pressure to not screw it up and I went conservative on the launch and avoided any wheel spin. It was a left foot brake hold and then release while mashing the accelerator down with my right foot. I would have liked to try making additional passes messing with tire pressure and trying to rev the engine slightly and slingshotting it. In any case, you can see the car did better in May with the 60', 330', and 660' (1/8th mile) time. Speed was 1.1 mph faster this time, though, which means the car is putting out more power (consistent with my dyno results), but I just didn't as good a job as I could have in transferring that power to the ground off the line. Bottom line: I need more practice with this setup. Ah well, it's still a solid 13-sec pass and at least I can back up my license plate: 13S BRO
