Pull up into the water...spin the tires to get them wet...pull up 6 inches...roast the tires...roll through three gears and move forward...turn nitrous pump on...purge nitrous...pull up to the light...hang on for dear life!


I hear you... I'll get there... seat time and good coaching... my hands were shaking like a leaf for my first pass... but Brandi is so stable and predictable... I felt really comfortable, just got overly anxious on the shifts... With the N/A cars, you have to trash on en pretty hard for good times, with this F/I, like my daddy taught me with tools, let the car do the work... just enjoy the ride... I need to slow down my shifting, come off the gas just a touch more, and let the Twins do their job, they are way more than capable...
