I can't view the video right now, but aft mounted camera should work fine since you were in front of everyone, except for when you started lapping the field. I believe you had half of the corner workers confused since they didn't anticipate a SM leading the field when we had several ground pounders out in that race.
Some of the corner workers accused me of running rain tires. I was on Hoosiers, not rains. It was slippery. My wife was standing next to the fire/rescue team near grid. They were chearing me on when I was coming up to lap the Corvette for the second time.

I have to gloat just a little - even I passed one of the Corvettes, but my corner working friends didn't get the photo. Even I had too much HP on the new section once it got saturated. I assumed you were on Toyo intermediates, but if you were on Hoosiers, great run!
Nope. On Hoosier DOT slicks. That new pavement setion reminded me of a gokart slick track I went to in California. It was a track made of sheet metal covered with baby powder. There was zero grip through that section. I sort of just aimed and slid through.

Jerry, of course you passed a Corvette... I saw that v8 under the hood at MO. Not surprised you had too much HP for the new section...

It took a lot of exhaust tuning to get it sounding like an I-4 banger.
