Yep they down loaded and played OK on my putor at home.

The first clip you can see the wheel stand and Wayne missing 2nd gear AGAIN. The 2nd clip is not too bad, Loose the car in the distance but good

I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

what revs is he changing at?
It sounds real low to me, like 4500rpm or something.
Oh, what quarter time was that also?
Thanx for the vids, too

Gear changing at 6000 rpm

thats a 11.08 at 122mph run.

Count the seconds from when it takes off to you hear the car back off or see the finish post on side of track.

Nope, it's white/blue/yellow.
Off the track now and in the process of building a new car.

Missing second gear again? Most of the time that happens it is not the driver but clutch disc weight. The poor old brass synchros really struggle if he is using multi-disc or more than 4-puc 200mm single disc. Pro-shift dogs will help but will need more than normal servicing until lighter disc mass is achieved. Short shifting (lower RPM) will help but we really just want to go FAST!
