    Hi Mark,

    We won't tell them my speed at the end of the back straight. But maybe the fact that I out pulled the faster of the two yellow E46 M3 all the way up the straight might open the door to some guessing.

    Could be that that is why Todd asked,,?

    Nice shots,
    Dave

    I think Todd asked because he thought we went to the drag strip.

    But I am wondering why my car seemed to be pulling slowly on the back stretch. I had expected to easily get it up to 225 or so.

    Last time, naturally aspired, working my car hard I was into the low 190's. This past weekend I could reach close to 220 even short shifting at 6000. But the car got light going into the braking zone and I had to brake way to hard to enter '8' smoothly so I typically didn't do much more that 210. A couple of times I just let it run into the rev limiter in 4th to avoid a shift into and back out of fifth.

    Great weekend,
    Dave
