Default IFO Montgomery FWD Video...

Quick edit of the semi final round at IFO Montgomery this past weekend. It wasn't a pretty one, but a win is a win and even better when it's on a holeshot. The drop from 11,000 rpm in 1st gear to 4500 rpm in 3rd sucked, but it's all I had to work with. Made it to the finals and the car I went up against broke so we went from almost not racing to taking home the win for the day.

Thanks guys, the in-car video is so weird waiting for the car to take off in 3rd gear. I definitely didn't want to hurt the trans any more than had already been done so I was clutching to nuetral and then clutching into 3rd while trying to rev match. My lady and kids waiving at me and screaming for me made the entire trip worth it.

I had hoped to run some low 9s as I had just set up another boost solenoid to turn up the power. Thanks to Mike at TDC Performance in Mobile, AL for getting me parts for that like normal and Joe at Tempest for all my push lock fittings and line last minute to make that race since I didn't touch the car from a race a few weeks before.

Nice job! It looks like they still don't prep the track past the 1/8... It was the same way 2 years ago when i raced over there.

I want to see what NE guys can do in our tracks here. We don't get prep like they do.
My first time at rockingham I broke a 3.9 from tire shake, never seen a track that sticky before.

Jason you need to bring it down to SGMP. Track is always good on test n tune nights and if you catch it on the right weekend (IE test n Tune night before a big event Its awesome.) I'll shoot you a text with some good dates. If you let me know in advance i've got a connection out their we can use to make sure they put a little extra prep down for the night you want to come.

Yeah man been down there last year and the track prep was great. I'll get some time for the car early next year and will fix the gear issue and go back out turning it up.
