Monadnock Videos Posted on barnett73.com

Jonny uploaded the two videos the team took at Monadnock.  The first is the in-car video of the consi race. 


This second video is the view of the consi race from the Monadnock pit stands. 



Also, the MyLaps page was updated and you can check out the Monadnock Lap Times for all cars here.  LB got consistently faster as the night went on and as the crew made adjustments to the car.  He was surprised to see that he eventually got under thirteen seconds when I showed him the results. 

                                                LB's fast times in each segment
Practice 1                13.678
Practice 2                13.510
Practice 3                13.148
Heat Race                13.190
Consi                       12.934 

It's also interesting to note that at least at Monadnock (and other short tracks), the fastest cars don't always win the race.  Consi winner Dwight Jarvis posted a fast time of 12.864, but the fastest guy in that race was Todd Annarummo with 12.751, who finished 3rd.   

The same can be said for the feature race, where Jon McKennedy posted fast time of 12.812, but fastest time was Jim Boniface, with 12.724, who went on to finish 5th in the race. 

The guys who finished between 8th and 12th mostly posted times in the 12.934 range, so this is a pretty good sign that once LB gets more comfortable driving, he's already got the "speed" part covered.
