I will upload those later to an album and share the link. Lots of clean runs. I stayed until around 4:00

I do wish the show field had more cars; I've been to etown sometimes where that whole big partitioned parking lot area is filled end to end with show cars. Possibly the low turnout was due to this being the same weekend as the wild Ocean City maryland event? Had a great time, went the LOOONG way on the way home just to have an hour extra seat time in the car. Hopefully tonight I'll get those photos/videos up after work.
Glad we ran into each other and looking forward to the vids. The yellow C5 I raced was quite the "sleeper". He dialed 11.5 but ended up running 11.05. The whole time I'm thinking how the hell is he staying ahead that far. The black C6 that knocked me out was pretty badass. The Z was def impacted by lack of a complete cool down as the mph dipped a couple to 122 in the 2 later runs.

I never spun once. These tires actually grab pretty good (I pick up all the stones under normal driving conditions). I'm pretty pleased all things considered. The launch technique recommended is an idle punch although I feel like the computer smooths the throttle opening. I had the PDR working for a few runs so I will see how it registers. I got 3 time trial runs and then 2 more as I went into the semi finals.
