Lap time details

Disclaimer - times were with the Track Addict app. It's very similar to quite a few other laps I had, but the others were low 1:48. I'm still a bit timid in the corners, so lots of time left by bumping up mph in the corners. I also tend to coast quite a bit. One other thing is that I typically short shift to help keep heat down (5000-6000rpm). The Roush blower - in spite of it's shortcomings - makes really good midrange power. I was typically in the 130mph range coming into 11 (if I wasn't trying to cool it off). On this lap it was a gps indicated 129.4. The car is significantly faster than my times indicate, but it would get hot in a hurry if I pushed it much harder. I also keep in the back of my mind that I've got a 700 mile return trip home after the track time. This was during the Mohawk Track Experience.
