Tonight was freaking awesome! I ended up doing 9 passes before taking off with my best run being 9.941 @ 74.50 mph. I can't wait to get back out there to improve my time!

Congrats you just got bit by the track bug, which also makes you vulnerable to the mod bug! Since you enjoyed yourself you'll want to go back all the time, and each time you'll want to go faster and faster which means you'll need to do more and more mods. It's a great hobby but gets expensive quick haha. Glad you enjoyed yourself!
