    Like your suspension set up. Very little cowl shake with minimal body roll. Good Job!!!!

    Wow! that is a beast of a CFI. Were you in 1st gear?

    I would need a line painted on the ground, or I would be a complete mess lol

    Yeah, takes a while to get used to the cone thing.

    I started in first, let it shift into 2nd, then pulled it back to keep it in second (you can actually see me playing with the stick in the first couple seconds of the run). So 2nd gear throughout. I did a race a couple months ago with a much more twisty design and left it in first. That was hilarious. And sounded awesome.
