Really nice video. What tires were you running? Didn't seem like you lost grip anywhere on that course!

Have a good one,
Mike

Just got to listen to the video with sound up. What gears are you running? You were pretty deep into 3rd, and if you're running a MN6/3.42 setup you were well up into the 90s! Woo Hoo!

I'm running a Z06 crate motor. 6800 redline, M12/3.42 I did look down at the finish line and it was 83mph. I just couldn't look down on the long straight. Even with HUD it's hard to take a peak.

Ah. I think your car is an FRC, so I assumed you were running the MN6 tranny. That M12 gear ratio is great through 3rd, especially with that 6800 rev limit.

Have a good one,
Mike

Awesome video. Not sure I could keep track of when to be on which side of the cone.
