Well I finaly made it to Sac for a race made some money but didn't get a real chance to try and get a good pass in. I put some slics on my car for the first time. The first pass I took it easy on it to see how it would work. ran a 11.38 at 125 with a 1.78 60 foot time got to the ticket booth and the lady rang me up for no roll bar, harnesses and jacket [Eek!] (don't know how you locals get away with running the numbers you do with out the equipment.)maybe the way I do in Redding LOL. The next pass I hammered it off the line but missed 3rd gear had to basicly do a fast and furious double cluth to get it in and ran a 11.55 with a 1.56 60 foot(more like it). The ticket lady said slow it down a little more. If I didn't miss 3rd I would have ran it all the way out and probably been booted. My friends basicly said stop Fing around and get kicked out. So I slowed it down and dailed a 11.55 and made it to the finals were I blew it. If I would have lost in my brackets I would of tried to pound it out again but it didn't work out. bummer [Frown] I have never even been close to a 1.56 in my 91 before so it would have been nice to finish that one out.
