I am. Now I wouldn't actually put any money on it since I seem to flake on all track appearances I state, but you never know. [Cool]

What time do the gates open? May have to make it a full day of car shit and go out there after the tune at apex. Shoule have the the cooler and all the other shit on with a fresh tune. Still end up with shitty times seeing the only time I have taken my car out was about a year ago.

I went to the track tonight. I got in 2 runs before spitting out my drive line on the third. Oh well, will have it fixed by midweek. Here are my times.
Pass #1
reaction: .694
60 foot: 1.608 shitty burnout
half track: 7.104 @ 99.115 mph
finish: 11.442 @ 99.987 Car started dancing, got out of it.
Second pass
reaction: .681
60 foot: 1.586 Still working on that. was a 1.44 last year!
half track: 6.992 @ 101.294
finish: 10.863 @ 127.570

First 2 passes on this motor. Still getting used to it. We'll see what happens when the laughing gas comes into play!

I saw you guys. You were parked accross from us in the pits. I have the black C4 Vette. Looks pretty stock so you probably didn't notice it. That's a clean Chevelle
[Cool] [Cool]

I only run 275/40/17 Drag radials. I like to keep the car looking stock. On the 31st the fastest I could go was 10.90 @ 126 with a 1.53 60ft. Last tear with a little better air the car was going 10.70's all night. All times are motor only.
I'm going to put a real carb and exhaust on the car and hope for the best. And of course I always have my bottle [Big Grin]

What car did you bring or were you there with someone?
