sad sad day.... i really suck now...
well i went to the race track yesterday for the first time this season and pulled some real bad numbers....
had lots of issues with traction, missing my shifts, and very poor reaction time...... my best time last nite was a 16.7 @89.715MPH with a reaction time of 1.253 now this is all considering that i missed my shift into second, and traction was pure crap in first. my all time best run was a 15.7 last year and my speed trap was a lil under that i got yesterday... oh well... i'm trying again in a few weeks.... |

ha, mine does the same thing. sounds like a dying robot. i couldn't figure out what was wrong with it... thought maybe the new speakers had something to do with it, but now i'll have to go home and check the battery. thanks for the idea! |
