I have to back out. Just started new job and the next weekend is my camping wheeling weekend at Hollister Hills with 250 other 4x4 nuts like myself. Maybe next time.

Forgot to post this, was a pretty good day at the track

My first run showed the 20 year layoff on racing, and the first time in a turbo car

1st run=13.1 at 102mph, stock boost setting.
2nd run=13.4 at 101mph, boost turned up to around 17-18

well for the third run I decided it would best to let the Dom run it, so he could tune it more easy.

He proved the car to be a 11 sec car by pulling off a 11.6 at 118.8mph , and that was with letting up on the gas once during the run, boost was 18.5 max.

Jeff did some good mid 12's once he got a few problems taken care of.

Mark,

He was considering going to the Sat test n tune untill i told him he would be lonely up there with noone else around. He would have to write his own timeslips

This coming weekend is the "NITRO NIGHT OF FIRE" Friday and Sat then Sun is Vette Magic.

The next test n tune is Friday the 13th and Grudge night is Sat the 14th. Let me know if you guys decide to go. We might take the TTA up on Grudge Night or test n tune.
