SSCC Day 3 - The Race

After making it through an inspection of our safety equipment and tires we hit the starting line and waited for out shot down the daunting 90 mile stretch of Highway 318.

90 miles of two lane highway across the desert...

Putting our plan into action we cruised across the desert at 120 to 130 mph for the first 40 miles - putting nearly a half second 'in the bank' for our 'slow' cruise through the narrow at just under 100.  Once we were through the narrows I tried to hold our speed at exactly 115 mph.  At the final mile marker we were within 0.07 seconds of our ideal target... but as we crossed the finish line we seemed to be a second or two off our target (?)  I'm not sure what happened but it could be close...
