I assume you are pretty tame on the street. Most of the guys who go through them so fast is because they accelerate to the max at EVERY chance. I think you'll be fine.

Now if you auto-x it every weekend then start saving now. lol

Speaking of Burnouts....

I apologize for the video flipping around and what not.... but here is our Saturday Shakedown pass at the Texas Mile.... March 2013... Turn up the sound and listen to her rumble at the start line....You can also hear her spinning the tires a little at the bottom of 2nd gear, right after shifting, and at the top of third right before shifting... This is the pass where we had a spark plug wire come off, but other than that, she was healthy... I shut her down near the half mile, turned off at the mile and went to the pits...
