By the way this is not an easy vehicle to shift with the shifter position and how you are strapped in. 
Is that something you can improve? Faster shifting = faster speed.

Charlie told me after this last run that I can bend it anyway I like. I want to get it right between my legs, as it is now I have to kinda bend my right leg out a little to be on the gas and be able to reach the shifter, and remember you wear hand restraints too.

Yeah, still after that record. Maybe next month.  If everything goes as we planned it will be witnessed by four hooligans from Finland.  We all look forward to seeing you guys, we may put you to work.

Very cool video Tim got my heart rate up a little and I'm just watching on the computer. It sound good and it seemed to me to still be pulling rpms at the traps. I think the lack of traction and the fact you had to pedal it was the killer. Good track good air it will run the number. This of coarse come from my endless LSR experance (thats counting both passes)
