1st time down the strip!
And I couldn't be more happy, well maybe a little better consistency since I did have a few botched runs that were .2 slower.
Anyways, it was in the Rental M35X, I've learned alot and read alot so I had a heads up of how everything was going to go down pulling into the lane and staging and everything. My goal was to stage very very shallow and leave on the green to try to get the highest ET I could. On the 1st run I left a hair late, I wasn't expecting the pro-tree, but by the 2nd run I'd say I got it figured out...........
Staging shallow on a pro-tree I got a .400 R/T!!
Here's the specs on that pass:
r/t: .400
60': 2.143
1/4: 14.640
mph: 95.71
I did somehow make a better pass at one point, e/t wise, but I almost wonder if it was a glitch in the electronics because I was still behind time wise at the 1000' mark and the mph was slower than on the above pass also, yet the e/t was a 14.639? Not that thousandths matter, I just found that odd.
Anyways, quick wrap up of the passes in order:
14.823
14.640
14.687
14.765
14.656
14.639
14.646
Not bad I'd say, but if I had a stickshift 2wd car I think I would have looked like an idiot.
I'll tell you also, I was SOOOOO impressed with Aaron, I didn't get to watch any of his races but I could recognize his car through the fence and bleachers a little and I kept checking the board everytime he ran, I didn't see any pass higher or lower than a 12.80 to 12.88, he was just so damn consistent in such a fast car.
