Every round my motor came in right in the 230*f range and always had a half tank of fuel with 6+ minutes of run time. Having silly mistakes in each qually left me as BQ for the 30 minute B Main. So while going threw the car late saturday night we decided to run 10 minute pit strategies.

Sunday Main day, Motor tune was still spot on. I proceeded with my 10 minute strategy only stopping twice in the 30 minute final and it paid off. I won the B main by 4.5 laps bumping me into the A.

For the A Main warm up I broke a servo saver, so i had to swap on my 1/8 E Buggy front end missing the start and getting back on the track 4 minutes into the Final. I didn't come in for fuel until the 15 minute race mark, 26 minute mark. Thats a 11 minute first stop. I was able to climb back to 10th.

It was so nice to know I could easily pull 10 minute stops. As a matter of fact the only other guy pulling 10's this weekend was Alphas Jeremy Whiting. Super happy with this motor Neal. Absolutely in love.

Lust was also on 10's Baumel might have been as well.......Either way Awesome racing Dan, Look forward to next year.

as Much as i would have loved to run 10's,.......Without a competent pitman to know when your pushing a little too far i decided to stay on 8's.... keep out of the pits for that mad rush at 7.5

your lucky dano to have tim and the boys take care of you for pitting. That's one thing I hate about traveling alone.
