The car is fine and dandy. It'll be running later on at Commerce (Hot 'N Fast Sport Compact Grudge Race) if it don't rain.Originally Posted by dcutting9
It was just a bad launch if you could call it a launch. I couldn't launch like at a dragstrip since the starting point at AMS slants downhill. I would start to roll forward when I rev up and hold my RPMs and the flagger didn't like that too much. I had to improvise a quick rev up and launch as soon as the flagger lifts his arms and that's where I screwed up in the finals.... too low of an RPM when I launched and I bogged.
Oh well... I was only there to experience how it was over there and it's alright. I prefer the dragstrip.
