Shouldn't your windows be down?

These are closer to bottoming:
You didn't mention that your suspension DID bottom out on the oval at 135 mph because you didn't have a rear swaybar.
John, was it stock suspension then? I thought was JRZ's with 650 lb/in rear springs.

Heh, what's wrong with my steering grip? Just curious. I think it's the angle of the shot that is throwing you.
Most instructors teach a light grip primarily in the fingers - like a golf club or like a table knife when you cut a steak, and "thumbs up" along the wheel, not against your fingers. Your knuckles appear to be over the top of the wheel, which appears to be tight in your palm rather than fingers.

Yes, I said JRZs -- top two pics are Hoosier/stock, bottom two are RA1/JRZ. Front and rear were 550 then.
