Yesterday was a great day for racing. Everything seems to be working great on the car. It repeated all day. I just have to make some suspenion tweaks to try and get it to quit twisting so much.

Thanks to PRP for having the gamblers and staying open late to get it in.

All I know, it felt so good to be home! It was a long winter, and smelling some race gas and burnt rubber was desparately needed. Although... it's like last year never ended... second elimination round of the year, and that tool Balaska gave the stripe up. Banging Head Banging Head Banging Head

I might have to start not even looking at the other car for a while to break the habit and then go from there.

Mike one thing to try is when you pick your spot intentionally move it forward about 1 foot. This will buy you .010 - .015 so it will turn those .00'sthe wrong way the right way.

i am going to mount the cam a little different next time maybe looking backward from the scoop also going to mount it to watch the rear suspension in the camaro. the dragster has more in it...that was almost 3/4 throttle went 7.90 at 170....5.0 @142 in the 1/8 should go 7.60's. next time i will have to remember to plug the mircophone in so that i have sound.
