Here's my Sunday run in the STI - 2nd in BS - 56.546.
Tom T delivered a hell of a thrashing. I just couldn't understand the STI gearing to save my life. Critique welcome. Apologies in advance for the wind noise.
So I was the guy that ran out of gas in Heat 4. This was my last and fastest run of the day, 58.490. The car experienced a fuel starvation of almost 4 seconds (as per the data logger) when the car was coming out of a right-hand sweeper. As you can see from the picture-in-picture, the car was full throttle, but the car would not rev past 3,500 - 3,600 rpm. The car's fuel tank was on E and and light was on. There was about 1.5 gallon left in the tank (I filled it up to the brim after the run and managed to put in 11.2 gallons in a 12.7 gallon tank).
I want to thank George Schilling for letting me use his gas tank between my 2nd and last runs. I won't forget your generosity.

2nd Place once they correct the results
Paul, are you running CAM-C instead of NOV now?

Hey Chad,
Ya I switch last weekend, I think that's the best fit for my car.
The computers went down during the first session, so I think that's why they still show me in NOV?
I emailed Rick Brown to have him correct the results?

I like the dark side, it's full a Chevy's!!! lol
No, I'm doing the Hotchkis instead, I thought you told me that was the one everyone was doing?
I didn't see any CAM cars signed up the last time I looked at the Pro?
I might go up North and do that one?

Yep. There will be a bunch of CAM cars at the Hotchkis event. Originally, it didn't conflict with the ProSolo date but with the El Toro difficulties the dates moved and are now in conflict. I will send you a message on Facebook.
