I'll be there. I won't be running the Mustang. I am going to drag out the Camaro and blow the cob webs out of it. Maybe the wife will run the Mustang?

I was there. What a cluster f***. Not enough staff to get cars in the gate, waited an hour and a half to get teched, no organization at the head of the lanes, no water in the water box. I remember why I don't go out on grudge nights.

Track prep was shitty. Way too many cars out there and not enough staff.
I lost about 1/2 second off my regular passes but I did scramble to get it working in the morning and broke at the track.
That's notch1320 and nice meeting you. That bolt got me two passes [Smile] .

Albert,

Nice to finally meet you in person. I'm glad the bolt worked out for you, and the trip wasn't a complete waste. We all want to see that twin turbo car out though!!!

Track prep seemed to be working for us. 9.1 @ 165mph on 26" MT ET Street Tires.

Definately crowded and a lot of cars. Dont think they anticipated that many people is what it looked like. Nice thing is that they did run cars out way past the 10:00 closure time.

Dude you are a completely easy setup for a bad track though! Small motor and turbo, you don't really start applying power till your out of the hole so even a bad track for us is an ok track for you. The top was even slick and you can't tell me your going to stick with that mph either! It was off all night and even though your a turbo car that mph is for a car in the low 8's hi 7's. At 9.1 you should have trapped in the mid 150's range. All in all the track prep sucked but it was a grudge night what do you expect. I'm not mad that the track wasn't done I was mad that they had no crew and everything was a cluster F***! And they want the WCHRA to come up but run their show in one day [Eek!] They must be on crack!!!! In the PSCA we can't hardly get through qualifying by the end of one day.

HAHAHAHA, I leave on the T-brake at about 5500rpm, I throw down about 9 lbs of boost on the launch, ramp it up, I have a stock diff, I have IRS rear suspension. The car has been trapping mid 150's to 160 running a 9.5 in Sac, Bakersfield, and Vegas. I dont think the clocks were off that far if they were off at all, lot of the other high powered cars were running pretty consistant to the standard ET and MPH from what I heard.

it was a good night at the track, track prep looked good to me..

however the traps on the right lane were a few mph off on certain runs!...a friend of mine in his SS who was trapping 112-113 in the left lane was trapping 118 and 119 in the right lane [Big Grin] ....
