Here is a quick replay of my last 4 major track outings!

Went to the Rock and busted the drive shaft, competley destroyed the trans (COMPLETLEY), exhuast, loop, and ripped some nice gashes in the rear pan.

Went to Reynolds with TFS car, pull up do a burnout, pull to line and SMOKED the trans!

Went to BG this year, made 2 passes then finally got Maft Pro logging and bruce adjusted some on the trans and finally had it ready and lanes got shut off early, no good pass....

Went to Kinston, my local track, first pass burn up wb02 sensor and blowed headgasket...

Figure mine as well get them all running before I tear them back up again

Does Rockingham have tech? If so, do they enforce the fire jacket/roll bar for a low 11 second car? Also, my helmet does not meet the '07 standards. Is that a problem?

On these test and tunes they are pretty informal. You should be fine.

Geoff
run something a little different? or try something a little different ? like letting the wife drive so the car can see some respectable #'s, I don't think she will get scared like someone else, cough Geoff cough.

as for the gates opening she told me that they will open the gate "between" 11-12 & start TNT about 12.

.
Heck, I think she has made more passes in it in the last couple of years than I have.
The GN has an issue right now, so i don't want to make anymore passes in it---a TR with an issue, can you IMAGINE that

K.--if i can make it, i will be in the grey conv. I have already had it to the track, it felt like an elephant on skates with the mich. pilots on the back.
I have some new rims and big MT drag radials on order, but they obviously won't be here before this weekend.

Geoff if you would like some good street tire that love the corners, try these. I have found on Kate's car they stick like a car on rails in the turns.

Don't forget that there's a 200+ rear wheel HP difference between the cars... So Kate's car might stick, Geoff's won't!!
