2011 JBRL, Round 2, OCRC

I was hoping for a good showing, but I wasn't as prepared as I could have been. I didn't have a set of slicks ready for the grooved track (which appeared for the mains), as I never tested on slicks. I forgot to bring the "secret" tire additive and never tested with it, for the grooved track. Thus, I was almost a second slower per lap. My motors seemed to be overheating, when they were probably fine, causing me to keep gearing down, and end up under-geared by the mains. I only make 1 of 3 A mains (where I end up breaking an arm), and end up almost finishing last in my other 2 classes :( Like I said, not a good day for me. I will be better prepared when the JBRL returns to OCRC in September!

Anyway, here are the videos we were able to get.
