Re: Some time slips (Vic'89)
Vic, it appears that they only put the weather info on the test and tune days.
For Real Street and others, they leave it off, don't know why.

Hey Mike, I have the stock 3.45 gear and I'm in 4th gear usually at 5000 rpm at the finish line.

Re: Some time slips (Mr Mojo)
You've got some great times.
I was having problems getting a good launch today. I spent most of the day spinning through 1st gear. With the 3.07s and the 4+3, I either hit the revlimiter in 3rd ~50' short of the traps or shift to 4th and just start to get back into the sweet spot when I crossed the line.
A set of gears and a LOT of practice might actually net the car some good times.

Re: Some time slips (Red96Coupe)
Another first round loss that was :crazy: Those close dial ins should have been in the finals, not the first round. That was when I just bought the GS and it was still stock and I was trying to learn the car :D
And I passed a kidney stone the day before the race, and installed my linelock doubled over fresh out of the emergency room still on Morphine :D :D
