If you turn up the speakers you can literally hear the tires sticking to the track all the way to the 330 mark.

I bet! I know inside my car at the line it sounded like the axles were grinding themselves to pieces.. like you, I though something initially broke..

I have never been on a track where I had to give it gas to get it to move. Literally used to just lifting the brake a little..

You could take your foot off the brake and the car wouldn't move, it was that sticky.  Your actually fighting the tacky ness of the prep.

DA was actually a little high compared to the other days... 1200 iirc?

MIR is killer, it's the track I grew up on. I had no idea how nice it was until I started to go others.. cause even Capitol is really nice too...

6200, that's how sticky it was to the 330.  Car was struggling.  I was 3 to 4 MPH off at top end.
