Im just all warm and fuzzy over that red car...Thanks so much for posting.
I like that one too. :thumbsup Can you tell which one of you was driving? It looks really good! (May have been getting off the gas a bit early going through the traps... ) :cheers

The nose looks low, as if the driver was indeed off the gas. I think its my car, based on the red tape on the rear haunch. A VERY generous 238 mph TT driver gave me a roll of red speed tape to protect my car
The only run i lifted on was my licensing run, since I was afraid of busting out of the 160 limit. Regardless, I love that pic and how low the nose is. Its now my screen saver.

I don't know, that looks a lot like A.J. Foyt or Dan Gurney... :biggrin
Kinda bustin your chops a bit on the letting out early. :lol I thought you had a second driver too. I do really love that picture!:thumbsup
Did the tape come off easy enough?

It game off easy peazy lemon squeezy (epls)
That stuff is great, and I need to buy some more plus an extra to return to you! Where did you find it? I don't mind telling you that I am a bit of a "waxer" as some like to call it. As soon as I got the car out of the trailer after the event, I was on it like a hen on a june bug with my quick detailer. After about ten minutes, it looked good as new. I'm telling you, 210 mph in the morning and looking like a brand new car in the evening. What other car can you you say that about? Certainly not the Ferr......oops.

Shhh, me too. :secret: I kept getting ragged on by people,:willy (even Camilo gave me a hard time for messing up the lines). I had the blue tape all over my car and heard about it like you can't imagine. :bored
Then I found the color matching stuff and it really doesn't show up on pics and most people don't even notice it. http://www.saferacer.com/isc-racers-tape.html?productid=583
It has several colors and I was even able to get some to match up Aloha GTs Heritage. If people do notice it, I tell them it is to make me go fast. They usually laugh until I get a few runs in,,,:biggrin
There is some really cool stuff called Helo tape, but it is very expensive. It is clear and was designed for Helicopter blade leading edges. http://www.racerstape.com/heli.html
The 3m stuff I got originally was way more expensive.
Do not even think of returning tape, I was glad to help a fellow Red rocket, especially since I had a bunch of that particular color,:thumbsup. (And I was so happy to find a fellow waxer, ( I even put my car back in the trailer that night so it wouldn't have to brave the elements overnight...):secret: Shhh
Kind of cool seeing all those rock nicks it the tape and pulling it away to see that pretty red paint shining underneath. :banana If I am in a really strange mood, I play this while I remove the tape.

I have been away for a few days. I should have the results today and be able to post a big pics and video thread by the weekend.
