It's not really spinning out of the hole. I'm not sure I'm launching it right. It spins at the top of first and through the shift sometimes. I'm curious if I can get it to come out of the hole better.

It sucks, but given the DA and head wind that's not a bad time at all. This fall you'll be having even more fun.

No not yet. The weather and track will dictate some of that. If we just pick a date, the weather may not be optimum.
