Thanks fellas!
Running high 60s in the real rough spots, low 70s between the pins.
It was 4-6 with some big holes that day, rough as sh!t!
We had zero ballast up front, was flighty on the beach side.

Yep.

Nice video. I wish more racers would post em- no better way to get a feel for it than a few minutes of the good chit.

Remember when your dad used to chart how tall you were (as you grew) on the side of the refrigerator? Maybe you should start doing it again - so you can see how much shorter you get after each race.

I did one long pull up as long as my arms would hold me the next week, felt great to de-compress

Its an air outet vent, getting air out of your engine compartment is as important as getting it in
