tis a shame they cant rise to the level of shopping cart racer, eh? :-)
looks like you enjoyed it - bodyroll city!!
haha, yeah. Hopefully I'll get to do at least one HPDE before the end of the year!
as far as body roll, it's not really that bad. the front end lifts up under full throttle though (pic #2) which is kinda cool :D
definitely need to improve the driver more than the car though.. I blew my last run, which would have easily been my best of the day, by overcooking the very last turn and plowing through the whole thing. :(
hard to say - probably. haven't been in any a situation where I need to shift mid-course yet, but with the auto it's a nightmare to pull off. launches are much faster though, and I have a lot more torque to play with. but once you got going with the auto, it really didn't matter - except it topped out at around 45-50mph in 1st (bouncing off the rev limiter kicks ass). the 5 speed will do 55 in 2nd, whith a similar gear ratio to the auto's 1st.
