The blue LX does have more in it, for starters it needs a better driver.

the track is a little uphill, even when there is no wind you still roll back. That would have to be a strong wind to push your car back. I always thought sac was a faster track, always got better times up there.

I don't know why people keep on saying that [Roll Eyes] ... THE TRACK Is not uphill.
It starts going uphill after you've crossed the finish line... [patriot]
I've never had the wind push me back.. but some of the veterans(people that are there every single wednesday) tell me that it happens when it gets really windy. [patriot]

I am not going to make claims about the incline or the wind, but I WILL say that I saw a number of cars roll back once staged this past Wed...
Not very many, but it was happening.

You see people all the time get to the line, stage, and then red light cause they rolled back.

Thats crazy..

Patrick, i don't think that was vince's cobra. he's got different rims on the front.
Last i talked to him his clutch was toast and he has thinking about finally having a non-stock one installed.

Thanks Jersey.

I haven't talked to him in a while and hope all is well with his car....i'm really curious to see how he likes the new clutch.

And how could they ever make a fully sanctioned NHRA track uphill [Roll Eyes] [BS flag]

Years ago the rt lane would always roll back if staged but there was an actual "dip" there which they fixed when they re-did the track and added the huge grandstand.

9 Sec EVO 9 is GONE!

New project in the works.......
