| Congrats guys. Sorry I didn't get back to you. As I mentioned on badbodies, I had some trouble with my phone, and also had some other business to attend to.

| ya, the track was by far better for the shorter wheelbase cars. there were a few turns that i had to almost completely stop in order to miss all the cones. i'm still wishing i could have gotten my 3rd run in before they shut it down. On my 2nd run, i should have done a burnout in the start box considering they didnt start the clock until you moved your nose forward.
pics are still being touched up and prepared for upload (there's lots of 'em) and the video may be a problem - may have to host each one seperate. i tried importing them into windows movie maker, but the quicktime format is not compatable.

| have to say, I have a whole new respect for the 9C3 Lumina. Cracked 100 in her twice in a day, and felt like nothing. | |
