AutoX 10-11-09 second event of the season

Awesome event yesterday(10-11-09) Placed 11th in my class, and 83rd overall. Not bad truck did really well even on the taller tires. Skidpad 4 was great! Finally cured after 10 months, lol, very little graveling/sand on the track. Next events are gonna be a lot of fun. Gonna have to soften up my suspension for next event it was really bumpy out there. Fastest Comp run was a 44.254/ And I wanted extra seat time so I paid for TimeOnly runs at the end of the day. And had 3 runs, managed to stay consistant with my first 2 runs around 44.3xx/44.4xx but managed to pull a 43.9xx on my last run in TimeOnly's. Was extremely excited about that run. that put me within 6 seconds of the fastest car out there on DOT rated tires with my all-season tires. Which is huge!!! Anyways here's the results, pics, and video of my last comp run and my fastest run of the day.

LOL, people have asked me the same question and I had no idea either! I took a friend on a ride-along on my last run and he said I topped out at ~60 km/h at 5600 rpms (auto trans in 1st with a 3.42 rear). Our track is laid out on a smaller lot and I only hit the limiter for a few seconds at a time - its not worth having it hunting for gears in drive.
