..and that is a substantial saving...forward thinking into those areas can go a long way, thanks for your input Jeff...

Danny Popp is quite a "shoe". It's hard to "out-row a RAFT".

Looks like the one my friend Kristen Lingenfelter drives but on in a 'vert. I just got the pics that were taken out at IMS for the 'Night Before the Race' event for Camaros and Corvettes and I sent her this pic of her crossing the 'Yard of Bricks' on May 26th. She said it made her day to have it on her facebook page when she came in today. Hell, driving her whip would be the thing that makes my day, everyday! LOL

Steady State Average Gs Across the Events and Lap Sectors 1.2 Gs. That is the AVERAGE. The theoretical limit on a street tire is 1.3Gs. we saw that number and then some across the events.
Top Speed on a Short Straight at Road America 148 MPH. That is screaming on the short straight.
