Default New PB

My day started out a bit frustrating trying to come to terms with the transbrake led to me giving it the flick and just footbraking the last qualifier. However, this gave me a new PB, 10.192 @ 134.12mph. The car hooked nicely off the line and felt good all track. Although there was about 10kts of tailwind, I managed to pick up 2.4mph over my previous PB, which equates to an increase of 35hp from a better tune.
Wasn't all good news, I got knocked out in the first round due to snoozing on the line (R/T of 0.162) and thinking I had the run I backed off to run a 10.22 on a 10.15 dial in, and the other guy snuck past me on the line. If I kept it floored all the way it probably would have been a new PB as all the incrementals were better. D'oh.
