I had a good first night of the season at the track. I ran a bunch of 12.5 passes and cut low .5 lights all night; my best was a .504.

.500 tree.
The best part is that I beat 79-80 camaro twice. It was a pure track car with huge slicks in the back and skinnies in the front and all his sponsors stickers on the car. He did a 20 second burnout to makes sure his tires were heated up too. I had to wait for him to finish at the line. I had him the whole way down the track.

One video is up

It is pretty loud. I think the camera automatically lowers the background noise.



On one of the videos the camera tilted down and you can see my fuel pressure gauge. It did not move at all so I think it might be the gauge but I have to check it out today to make sure.
