That was fun to watch. +1 on the limited time you were off throttle. You were in a zone.

Great stuff Juan. Especially love the Red for go, Green for stop in your display. You should hook up your rear brake lights like that too. Give them something to think about!

Car sounds really nice and raw like a 2L should and you are at 1 with it. Thanks.

I'm running an 8K rpm 3.0L 12.5 motor that get's crb's at 25hrs.
That and rings is the only thing we changed last 2 times during the maintenance tear down. Clean and check the rest and back to the track!

901 Shop has it down to a science; their attention to details is "obsessive-compulsive" and it shows.

You've got front right tire lift in 17 in your avatar. You're obviously doing something wrong....
