Hey Tony, Just bring what ever.
I can sweep, but you don't want to put a rod the the side

What's the serect for the 60' time....???

I vid my last trip to the track, couldn't drive around the water pit.
But I could see the front end wasn't lifting. I'm going to remove the front sway bar for the next trip and see if that helps.

no big secret JIm my car has too much carb. when I went to the track I held the throttle down to build boost then I floored it (on slicks) it was slower to build boost than usual it was flooding out so boost lag was alot worse. on street tires you have to roll on it so boost comes up farly quick I think you could roll into it and it would be faster only one way to check that though

I've done the rolling go on the 205/65/14's and pulled out some 2.3's . I got 2.3's to 2.4's spinning thru the 60' on the last trip, so I know I can bust in to the high 14's with traction. I have the carbed opened open and it's not over carbing yet with quick spool. I need to change plugs to 43T's instead of the 43TS's that I'm running, plus replace the Alt.... Those are going to wait acouple of weeks, just won 2 GN rims/tires on ebay for $81.59.. No the best looking, but good enfu for me

Damn, BOP at Reynolds or Super Heavy Shootout at Commerce?

I think BOP wins. It's gotta be cheaper, too. SHSO wants 55.00 for one day. How much and is there a web site to sign up?

I'm OK and so are the guys in the truck

Griffin is only 30 mintues from me
and I've talked to Mike McCoy..he has one as well.
I lost my hood emblem
I'll make a post later with more pics. The worst is the left frame where the bump bolts on. The rest is a pretty clean break.
Darn It....I know I was going to bust in to the 14's on this trip ...hmmm no nose...less weight..... to bad it wouldn't pass tech


LOL... Nope Jeff I vote GOP in CA...not that it helped there
Thanks Guys

Jim
