I'll second Allen's great performance.
His car sounded amazing.
And looked even better...
Not to mention that I was very happy to examine it rather closely and
noticed a few speed secrets that I will be implementing in my own cars.
Most of the laps that I was able to view the speed trap # into the approach
to turn five he was flirting with 130 MPH (128 at most glances)...
And that is not the fastest part of the track
So, impressive indeed; and a hats off to him in the fastest Triumph of the
weekend.
