Went Racing!!
First time back on the track since the crash of my 9-second car last November.
Test-N-Tune session Friday night. I was racing the car in my Sig. Pic. Rocket Head 468 with 4.10 gears. Running M/T 295/55R15 ET Street Radials.
Ran a best of 10.49 at 125.2
Raced a friend of mine in a very nice Kaufman Head BB Pontiac. He went best of 10.69 @ 121.6..about avg for his car. He weighs 3340 , I am at 3530. His car Chassis Dynoed 604 HP at 5800.....I always thought mine was about 625 at the flywheel...think it's a bit more??
Anyway,,had a great time.

First day of points is Sunday at my track
Was hoping to take the Alero for a change, but the tuning isn't complete yet, so it's the Delta, but I get to test out the 80's 442 air cleaner I bought. Also picked up a intake duct and a silicone elbow to tie it altogether

Sounds like a fun ride Danny! We have a month before our track opens. We fianally hit 50* today......snow isn't all gone yet . Good job by the way.
Was wondering how is the traction (track temp) this time of the year? What kind of DAs do you have down there?

Nick: The day we raced, the high temp was 81 and Sunny. We ran in the early evening so DA was under 2000'. Track seemed OK but not prepped for a TnT as well as for a race day, and this bothers alot of us running high horsepower and slicks.
Still no " smoking gun " on the cause of the other cars wreck. I have dis-assembled the other car with help from "Sicky-Olds" and "AH64Pilot" down to the front frame. Our plan is to cut the frame out at the factory Trans cross-member location and Front Clip the car...$$$$ concerns will see if that all comes about.
