Well, decided to hit up Sac today and had some good runs. Unfortunately, I did not match or beat my fastest time of 9.56 @ 141 from April 1st, but I did get a 142 mph on my fastest pass of the day...9.65. I had a pair of 9.6 passes and a pair of 9.7 passes. It is now time to change the rear gear, send in the converter to change the stall, and PUT THE JUG ON IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was actuallly supposed to run Bakersfield yesterday. However, Norm put it best...if I am going to race people, most likely it will be at Sac so it is best to handicap the car to make it work at Sac. I didn't have to make any suspension changes at all. It was like the first day at the track all over again...good track conditions overall. On my 9.80 pass, I was inches from the center line and stayed in it nearly the whole way. I was about to clip one of the cones and I lifted. I had one other lift pass that shot the car left a lil bit at the shift so I aborted rather than tried the be Captain Save a Pass.

By the way, got my second and third best sixty foots: 1.37, 1.38!!!

[worship] 6.9!!!! Oh, did you see that one first gen Camaro that launched like the Mopar in Fast and the Furious [Eek!]

Thanks man. I'm hoping for some low 1.3 (and dreaming of a 1.29) on the jug. I'm also hoping for about 155+ mph. We shall see soon enough. It is gonna take me a while to get the car setup as I got a lot going on with work/house/wife/kid.
