Craig, what time are you rolling through? I can meet up somewhere off 75/475 and we can caravan to the middle of nowhere.

I called during the week and they said sat & sun gates open. Guess that's no longer true. Hopefully they will be open tomorrow.

Just got settled, thanks fellas. I will post some pics, vids and slips tomorrow. Hella beat right now, lol. To sum it up, I ran in this order:

11.1; 10.97; 11.1; 10.87 hot lapped to 10.84.... The car got faster and faster as the day progressed, but with that it started hitting the rev limiter as it was reving faster than what the tranny could shift. My 60's ranged from 1.65 to 1.79, struggled to find traction all day.
