NYIRP is usually a very well prepped track. Better then what we get up here at Cicero. I'm surprised you guys had good weather, we've been getting rain all day.

Unique way to video tape your run!! God how I miss the supercharger whine but the "whoosh" sound of a turbo is quite impressive also. GL in your future runs!

I love to try new things. Expect a lot more new and awesome shots in the DVD that I'll be making at the end of the year.

I was there yesterday. I have an 07 LS. It my first time down the track too. My knee was shaking the first time I honestly had a hard time keeping the clutch in at first. My best run was a 16.7 at 82.4 and let me say I'm addicted. I think us cobalts near the buffalo area should get together sometime.

I won't be able to make it this week or weekend. I go to work out of town thursday morning for 4 straight doubles. So you will have to keep me in mind after that.
