Congrats on the Alpha12 record. 206 is fuckin' flying. We almost stopped by on saturday on the way back from Daytona but it would have put us back in the upstate pretty damn late.

as for VA... 5.5hrs to the strip... I might have to head up with the camera.

Saw where some unlucky guy in a Lambo lost it and parked it off in a pond Lol.

RoadconeTuning · 01-27-2015, 11:48 AM

broke the diffuser on an earlier spin out and decided that aero wasnt worth worrying about... sounds like an AWESOME idea...

GreebeanZ28 · 01-27-2015, 12:12 PM

more of just a Having street tires no traction issue. Guy blows the tires off in 2nd gear and is out in the dusty shit in 3rd and loses it.

RoadconeTuning · 01-27-2015, 12:18 PM

that too. I was told that the runway didnt have much traction either. Maybe Brian can elaborate.

on my first pass Sunday morning, at 176mph in 5th gear my rear wheels were spinning 17mph faster than the front wheels. Traction was horrible but I still rolled it out to a 190 pass

I dead hooked the same settings on the highway on the way to the event

Saw when some guys got a little left a cloud of dust and shit would blow up. Dunno if a sweeper truck would help or not.
