I was flying over E-town last night around 8:45 and looked down to see the action. Cool sight from 41,000 feet up.

PS the view of Manhattan was spectacular too.

I didn't race in the Bracket race as I only had 3 runs on my new converter, but made 2 time shots & the car ran "EXACTLY" what the TAG predicted... I think its "dialed in" !!

My 2nd run it predicted 11.75 & ran 11.749 so I plan on making that race for sure !! :-)

You'll be quicker than that in the coming weeks, there are 11.6s in your car.
