Thanks for posting the results!

Looks like you were definitely having a problem putting the power down. Do you have the all-seasons or summer tires? When temps are in the 40's like they were today, the summer tires are basically useless unless warmed up. Those 60' times are definitely not helping your times. How were you launching? You shouldn't shift unless you absolutely have to as it will only hurt your times, but at the same time you aren't at your maximum hp above about 6500rpm and should probably shift.

I'm guessing the space gray was 335trackaddict, don't know who the barrique red is though, haven't seen one of those around.
