Hahahaha . Good kills!
Now the real story Shalane did ok for not driving the car since its been on the road this time around, including the misadjusted clutch. Heres how it went from inside the car. We lined up with us a half car back going through a gradual turn. They both nail it and Shalane gets sideways....I proceed to yell at Shalane to STOP! STOP!!!! STOP!!!!!!!!!!! And she finally lets out and The Cobra walks away.

Second race...Shalane gets on it in second...shifts at 4500 rpm...misses third...finally gets in third...revs to 4500 again and short shifts. Spent more time shifting than on the gas Cobra win.

Third race I tell her to start in third to keep shifts to a minumum. We start at around 3000 rpm and about a half car behind. We both nail it and the car chugs forward and begins to roll by the Mighty Cobra , shift into fourth at 5500 this time (about 1200 rpm before redline) and pull a lil more...end up about two cars ahaed.

All in all Shalane did good for not driving the car for 4 months. We are going to put her on a training program to woop some Cobra butt Next time And we are gonna race for money...big money...$5 :o
Bring it Cobra boy

It was fun....and Ill tell Vinnie you want to race. That will be a very very good race too.
