Nope Rod didn't go. Me and Carl went up with the trailer.

Only got 1 run in. New combo bugs. Car launched good, ran good, smooth pass, but seems flat. Not making power.
ran 13.45@100 I'll be going back over it this week. Something is not right. I think the balancer has slipped.

Then it poured!!!!!.... oh well wasted another $100.

Well 13.4 @ 100mph ain't nothin to shake a stick at, pretty good actually when your having problems. It takes time to get them setup right , I feel for ya there Russ. Hopefully next time out will be better for ya. Maybe I'll come out to watch next time...
