Default 10.83 @ Carolina

I went to the final Carolina Corvette Challenge yesterday and won it.
There were 24 cars there.
Here are my times:

1.498 6.898 97.79 10.852 124.13
1.485 6.895 98.62 10.841 124.48
1.473 6.865 99.19 Let off to win
1.479 6.875 97.76 10.838 123.85
1.583 6.989 97.77 Let off to win
1.510 6.900 97.88 10.852 124.30
1.506 6.889 99.02 Let off to win race!!

I wish I didn't have to let off of the third run as it looked to be even quicker than 10.83. Can't get a big mph at Carolina as it run slightly uphill.

Nice going Dan. Keep them coming. I would stay in it and take the loss!

Great times, Daniel. And winning the race also was a tremendous accomplishment!

The third run was on a low 10.80X.

Nice going Dan. That's some car. Are you sure you want to de-mod it?

Robz - It's all I can do to let off of the gas when I'm on a good run. Sometimes I think it would be worth it to just stay in it.

RWhite - Roger I agree. I think it would have been an 80 or 81 at the worst.

gojo - Joe, you should have been there. I think they would have let you run. And no I really don't want to demod. I might not do it right away.
