He gets asked that a lot. And he answers that a lot. Try a search first if you haven't already. If you confirm you have searched first, I'm sure he will answer it.

He's not being an *** and I think you meant 'Quit' no?

If you go to Advanced search and put in 'Splitter' as the keyword and 'Disasterman' as the Username...hey Presto.

Jim does get asked a lot about his splitter. Scroll down the page for info.http://www.goodaero.com/JSG/GOODAero.nsf/Products?Open

It's a splitter he makes.

What's nice about it in particular is the way he mounts it to the car.

Heh. It came out like that I guess. I didn't mean it to.

Have you got a chance to see your T-bar delete?

What a race. You can check it out on Speedcasttv.com, it's the first race on Saturday.

Took a gamble and went out on slicks when nearly everyone else was on dry tires. I am the car you see spinning down the straight, into the grass at over 100 mph. got stuck and finally got it going after losing nearly 2:00 and 30 places.

Full course caution gave me some help but I had to pass a lot of cars to fight back to 3rd place by the final lap. An out of class AIX car clipped me at the exit of the Carousel, breaking my shock and ending my race. I lost the podium on the last lap.

I had the fastest lap of the race, including AIX and ST1. I guess the slicks almost paid off. If I had not spun at the start, I had a real chance of winning it all. Will post some videos later in the week.

You went faster than a 1:27!? EDIT: Nevermind, that was later in the dry. I guess you went faster than a 1:38. The wet is so challenging.

I was going to say use more caution, but now that I saw the video. Jeeeshe. Lots of slippery. LOL on the slide at start. Got you some good camera time.

Anyway you slice it, it seems like you have a lot of fun.

LOL>. end of the race at 54:58 The results screen pops up.. but if you look at the bottom right.. Who's that guy standing next to his car? I'm very glad the car made it through all that mess.
