Well I was out there in 98 degree heat and played slip and slide through the cones.

Fastest run was 4th run .... till I spun.

So here is the best no spin.

Oh yea I sucked. Got beat by 2 brand new ZO6's and a Street Prepared Cobra Mustang.
and some other sumpthin I think the time screwed up on a few cars.

I was really just giving you a hard time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

But........Your start cost you at least a half second (or more) and you were "behind" in a few spots....or so it appeared. It's tough to be a judge on the latter, but the start was gawd awful.

Personally, I have given up worrying about 1st gear....if it blows, it blows. I hit the start lights with as much speed as I can. If possible (and most times it is), I'll start at an angle towards the first apex cone on one of those 90 deg start jobbies then go for it.....this is not without risk, of course, but then AX is about risks in search of time, eh?
