Thanks, yeah she's doing good, it's not too bad yet just depends on how much walking she had to do at work, it kinda comes and goes, and weather makes a difference too, we'll see what the Doc says in June. we expect it after all both of them have the same mileage..

MAN!!! Came home from DS and work has been a biotch!!! Only good thing is everything has been postponed until the 19th. Having issues with a couple sites that they want to cut over. Gives me a little time to get a few things done around the house.

Yea it should be. May run down to Wild Pony Pass Saturday night to help with the test and tune of the vega, New motor is in sounding and looking good. Wasn't able to get it dyno'ed like he wanted so he wants to make a couple 1/8 th mile pass's to break it in and check things out. Also need to make sure it will go straight and not put it to hard on the bars.

Awesome, it's always interesting first time out with a new motor..

Got a report this morning. All I got was the driver needs to get his sh!t together. Sounds like all went well. 60ft times seem to be better and 1/8th mile times were good even peddling it 4 times. Only issue he did mention is it popped a tranny line. I guess that made for an interesting ride as well.

We index each car to what they run in qualifying. Going to be interesting how he runs being the official first time out. The motor is all new from pan to carb. running 14.1:1 and cam is as I remember 780 lift with a 1050 dominator. Can't wait to hear and see it run

Sounds like a pretty good deal.. Should be interesting to him run, sounds like a lot stouter motor than what he had before. Too bad T-Town is so far away.

Great Night pf racing. Even though it was a bit windy. Low car count all around. We had 17 cars in one class and 5 in the other. ADRA was saying they were down about 1/3 in each one of their class's. We had a few new cars as well that haven't run with us before. After a fun filled night. We walked in the door at home @ 6:30am Sunday. Needless to say no sleep except for a few minutes here and there through out the day sunday.
As for the Vega. We had him indexed at 9:10. Needles to say he was on it all night. So much so he won the deal. Below is a pic of one of his pass's in the right lane. All night clicking the 60ft lights with the rear wheels. Fronts would set down about the 70 to 80ft mark. Â First pass out of the box he had to peddle it to get it to come down. If it didn't have the bars on it, it would have been on the bumper for sure. He went back and made a couple adjustments to control the flight a bit. Â

Our racer with the blown Camero had a new car. Not blow as of yet but I have a feeling that may be in the future for the new car. She was running 8:80's.

WAY cool, Â Â Car looks good looks like he's got it dialed in, is he going to do anything to keep the nose down, or is it always been like that.
