Dennis,

just looked at the qualification results - could it be you got off the throttle pretty early? Only ~110 trap speed :shock: :lol:

Also, do I read the results right, your worst R/T was a .467? Great!

Thanks Everyone! I still have not stopped. Got home from Hockenheim and packed a bag to go TDY Monday morning, just returned today and I leave for the Drachten finals Friday morning.

Hockenheim was great! I didn't make a full throttle pass all weekend. My throttle stop is only foot controlled and I was on the brakes at the end of every run (just a little too much brake in the semi-finals). It was a good experience and my reaction times were consistantly low. I still may break down and go with a throttle stop system next year. Drachten is a faster track so I'll make some adjustments and see if I can make a few rounds this weekend.
