Quaker Steak and Lube (Clearwater, FL)
NO TC class today, limiting myself to two classes, it's a mind thing. Plus a lot of battery charging!!

XXX-S
No problems, just tiny bits of tuning. One >> loosening the drive belt a bit to reduce belt/bearing load/drag. Cuda drove better during the A-main, enough to set fastest lap 13.9 sec!!! Finished 2nd.

GT2-E
First on road race for the GT2-E.
Race Control made a change to autocross class. 3 ramps, autocross is like Robby Gordon's Stadium Truck races!!!
How did this go >>>> Qual's same as the GT-E TQ'd both qual's and was in the lead for 10 laps (half the race, winner had 20 at the finish). Two turns before the timing loop for lap 11 GT2-E rolled to a stop! No power!!!! Moved the power wires and there was power BUT I'm two laps down. There is still time to maybe get into the top three. THEN I forgot about the front ramp, hit it at full speed, this killed a shock and the GT2-E was done for a 4th.
