Yeah it sucks when the track shuts down, maybe you can catch some good neg. DA in the Spring when it opens ? …..you still had a awesome year though.
Thanks Robert. Hopefully the weather is more normal this year. I went in the spring but it warmed up so quick that eventhough we were running we couldn't hook up. The ground was still basically frozen. So the year is ending as suddenly as it started this year.
I sure can't complain. I won one heads up race beating a much quicker car. I won money in another race. We split the pot as it was getting late. I likely would have one that if you saw how my competition was running. I lost in semi finals to the track champ and driver of the year. Not to bad considering I entered 5 races. The 2 other times I got put out by 8 sec cars in a heads up race. LOL
I got to reach my goal of 1.50 60' and surpassed my goals of a 10.43 and then 10.39. Im learning alot about the air and how it affects the car performance wise.
All in all a great year.
And that doesn't even include meeting 4 more members from these forums and all the other regulars at the track.
Thank you all. You know who you are, for being supportive and helpful over the last few years as I reached goals and set new ones to reach or surpass them.

It's going to be a long winter of taking names before we can start kicking a$$es.

Thanks Sumit. That was while you were at Atco. See why I find it hard to drive 7 hrs or more south in November.

What is done to your car?
Race star front and rear with 305 et r's. Cci driveshaft, Per4Mance Development diff brace, still running one from the first batch.
Catch can and Metco breather.
I had the dealer install the spacers and blanket when they changed the blower under warranty. I had it incase I saw something I didn't like. We found oil leaking past the gaskets so they had no issues installing them for me.
On this day the front sway bar was out as well as the rear seat. The car weighed 2070kgs or a little less than 4570lbs at the dot scale on the way to the track.
That and trying everything I have read. Many many passes of practice.
Cold fall northern air helped a bunch.

I remember that you are.
But I couldn't resist as you got the 3.09 now.
You are one of the ones I listen to.
Especially after saving my sanity with tire movement on the RaceStars.👍
