Also, the times are a bit different d/t traffic on Sunday, and a shortened race. Thanks, Bill - don't let him kid you he still won both days! Congrats on some excellent racecraft! I've got to work on consistancy and working traffic at nationals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcarpen22 Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Eric, Could you give a synopsis of what gear you're in and where you shift from segment 5 through 10-11. I was downshifting to third at the end of the back straight and staying there until thunder valley but I think most people make an upshift around 8-9. Thanks, Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Rob Rob I staying in 3rd through Thunder Valley. I did bounce off the rev limiter a bit just before turn 9, then went to 4th once I was up over the hill after turn 9. Rob, email coming your way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
