Just doesn't seem fast when I watch myself.

Hey Noel,

I was under the impression that using a two step (launch control) was illegal for all but pro solo's. Is this not true? I need to get mine working.

I have no idea.

And why legal for pro solo if not legal for other events. Why the distinction?

I don't know, but I could have sworn I saw something on the matter. I thought you might know. I'll ask around tomorrow.

Year. I know they were discussing this one of the the STR threads here, but I don't remember which one. I just turned mine on for the first time last week. I like.

I have footage of Brian in my car. He was unable to drive it as fast as his own, which indicates that his is setup slightly better.

Also, it is interesting to see how I smoked him up the first half of the course. But in the middle mix of cones Brian was smooth and just found the way though whereas I gave up almost all of my time to him in that section. Sad because I must have had a second on him through the first half, and tied in terms of the just quarter. In just the middle quarter he killed it.

Brian did say your car accelerated better than his...

I really think you need to just soften everything up man. Drop down the sways and take some compression out of the shocks. Adjust the rebound to help dial in the cars response. I went soft on compression today and the car handled better than it ever has.
