I think mostly 21.5. The speed difference is about the same for the first 5 minutes.

Mike, that is a cool video of an awesome night at Cal Raceway.
Too bad for me I was the other yellow car, down in second watchin you pull away!

Any chance you have the videos of the earlier races where we were locking horns for about 6 of the 8 minutes? (yeh, I had the 6 minute tire sauce that nite )

I remember it well, we were dicin back and forth and Ted Nugent's "Stranglehold" was blastin!

Heat before that Black Sabbath's "Paranoid" was rockin then into "Mississippi Queen".

Default Congrats

Dude, you proved to everyone you are on top of your game (even if your an old guy). You brought your "A" game and you inspired many, including me.

You had a lot on your mind during the two days and you were kind enough to help me out, thank you I learned a lot.

I felt like a rock star sitting next to the "Cuda".

It was so cool to see your family there to support you, what else could you ask for.

I look forward to our ride up to Camarillo, it will be fun.

Again, Congratulations.
