Re: What are your goals for the 2015 racing season?
Accomplished my 2015 goal this year! Actually competed at two events! At the first one, I got put out in round one by the guy who won the entire points series for the year (so didn't feel too bad, it was my first ever round! At the second event, I ran dead consistent through my time trials, and won my first round!! That's the pic coming back in the return lane. Got put out in the second on a red light (my fault... oh well, went racing!) Big plans to compete for the points next year.

Re: What are your goals for the 2015 racing season?
Last year I hit a new personal best and got my goal in hand. a 11.70@116Mph. I was pretty happy.
I also came in as runner up in 1 sportsman race.
This year I want to be in the top 10 in sportsman at Milan. Its a hard goal for me but I really think I can get obtain it.
I believe I was in 24th or so at Milan this year. Not very good. But it was the first year with the new engine in the car.
I don't have any solid expectations for times. I will be slowing the car back down to the mid 12s like it was most of the past year. Consistency is my main goal.

When i first started the year i had some issues with the set up and eventually i got tired of being a 12 second car and upped the boost back to the 15psi area to nail down some 11s.
But I did hit some of my time goals that i had written on a white board in the shop. Last year I hit a best of 115.7mph and wanted to get 120 on a pass this year. I trapped 120mph in on pass and nailed a 11.59 @119 on another pass. So that was the positive. I also ran pro quite a bit at norwalk and a few time down at the trails. Which was fun. I ran at least 20 11 second passes this year and at the end of the year I finally got a solid tune and was damm consistant. A little too late in the year though.
