Nice video !
I bet if you could get a bit closer to those cones, you might have picked up a .5 second.

2:40 and 4:00 to hear Steve's Pod Racer
Second to last run was probably the fastest. Last run probably would have been quicker is I didn't slide it.
Still to aggressive.

Yeah Greg it does sound cool.
And you're smooth enough, but a little late in your turns...me too...

Greg, you're ready for grippier tires. It's hard to judge lines from that angle. I can tell you're turning too much in some places, and it's getting you into understeer... but I think that's more a side-effect of lack of grip than anything else. Get some grippy tires on there and it will be easier for you to learn to "turn less" because your turning input will give immediate feedback. I'm sure it's not doing that so much now.

It's funny how everyone is trained to look at the trailer after the run, even though there was no display board there. I did it after every run.

If you said 20yo stock shocks, we'd be impressed...metal fatigue doesn't set in that easily.
Guess I can't get love no matter how hard I try

Uh oh. I just might be running the original shocks...not sure.
If so, they're only 15 yrs old.
