Right on! Haven't run this car in a couple years. Thought I better "re-dial" her in. I've made many changes to her since then. Look for the blue Camaro with draglites.

I don't know if anyone frome this board showed up Fri. night, but I was there (by myself-no trailer). I forgot my helmet and had to call out a favor from an old friend. I got in 14 passes. Car went just as quick as last time-even went a couple hundredths quicker. At least now I know what needs to be done next. And from the video that was taken, my burnouts were more than weak they were LAME!!! No wonder I couldn't get traction in first! Could have made alot more passes, but there was no point. I found out what I needed to find out.

Had a hard time holding her in the water box. SHAME ON ME for not seeing this sooner!!! It was on the inside of the rotors. It's repaired as of last night. Pretty scary when you think of 117 MPH trap speeds!

were you the one who told me to get a helmet or the one who asked if I wanted to use the tower lane?
