Winged Warrior 2009 - Sneak Peak on results
Well the official results have not been posted, but I thought I would share some of the ole C55k video's

Highly Recommend clicking HD - Drag run
Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9e_Q7lAxnqY

12.291 @ 112.83 | My trap speeds were down considerably ... felt like I was loosing some power after 3rd...might be an IC pump going out. The runs today were all done on Michelin Pilots Sport PS2's

One of the autoross Runs... again on Youtube and recommend HD viewing
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbPOv0_t_b0

I got some major air in the showcase turn and decided to stamp on the throttle a bit coming through the turn. Seemed to get the crowed into it

You can hear the longtube headers good from the echo on the portion of the track as the exhaust was echoing off the bleechers.

I am in the process of uploading a bunch of other video's and pictures and will tend to adding them to this thread after.

Let me know what you think!

Hooley! your record lives another day!

Wish I could have watched the autocross, but I was busy beating up on some domestics on the dragstrip. I beat all imports in my class too except an R32 that sprayed on his last pass against me. All in all, the German cars did a fairly well representation this year.

LOL! Your getting closer.

You could do a shot of Nitrous and take the record easy. I wont do nitrous so the record could be all yours.

What were your 60ft times? The lower the 60ft time always seems to lower the trap speed. Did you use the REV ipod tool to log any of the runs?

The autocross REV results were amazing... when i went airborn and went into that turn i pushed 1.55G

Nick did you see the issues on wingedwarrior board? you maybe the winner for the drag portion...that R32 was sandbagging ...he was bragging about having nearly 600AWDHP before the event, even showing dyno results. He backed his boost down to 10LB to post the low 13 runs then bumped it back up to 20+ pounds while running you on that last one... he was originally in TOP GUN and somehow got moved to C class.

You maybe having a trophy getting sent to you
