Default 9.874 @ 138.70

Good time at the rental. Glad to see everyone. Jason Miller has one of the finest tracks I have had the pleasure to run at.
Made two passes. Second pass yielded a 9.874 @ 138.70 on a 1.38.
Andrew- Thanks for helping out that day.
Matt- Thanks for allowing me to use the shop to get ready for the WCFs and the rental. Greatly appreciate the assistance.
Rob- Thanks for helping getting the car together.
Weather was very good. Pass was decent but not perfect. I'm not going to complain.

Amazing numbers for a naturally aspirated/stock internals car.
And again, crunching the numbers and knowing that a 1.38 is NOT the car's best ever short time, it is possible that there's a 9.7x in it.
Congrats Gary (and team).
