    Anyone racing?

    I finally got the motivation and made the time to get mine back together. Did it all in 2 weeks. Big thanks to Neil, Bill and Will. Neil and I busted butt on it. I was rewarded with a best so far of 8.74@162! Found out why no one uses first gear on a 6R80 and why dome control is superior to the way I was doing it. That was on around 15 to 16 psi. Ready to see everyone at the track! I'll come to you!

    I wish! I am still working on making some major changes on the car. It'll be out sometime soon tho. Probably go down to Kentucky draqway to one of their rentals, or Edgewater, or Thornhill. I may use KK, but have to keep it to 1/8 mile there due to the short shutdown. I hate packing the chute, it sucks, so I only go as fast as I can stop with my brakes. Leave the chute for emergencies.
