This Weeks Race Report The race started off kinda bad. I blew the tires off on both time trails. I made a desperate call to Madman on what to dial the car. He told me to use the data from last week to dial the car, drop the tire pressure and do my job. Drive the DAMN car. 
Well, it worked. I cut a .017 light and ran dead on. A 6.7201 on a 6.72 dial.
Second round I got the bye and again ran a dead on 6.7203 with a .019 light.
3rd round I cut a .0071 light and ran a 6.80 on a 6.68 dial. I dumped it real hard at the top end so I didn't breakout.
4th round I went .0110 on the tree and ran a 6.653 on a 6.65 for the win.
5th round (the semis) I dialed a 6.64 and when the lights came down I dropped the hammer and all the car did was spin to a 1.59 60ft.(normal for the night was 1.39 to 1.41) I coun't run the number(a 6.90 on a 6.64) and my night was over.
The good, we are now #1 in track points. The bad, it's time to buy another set of slicks. Man, I am going to have to be real nice to the wife to be able to buy another set of slicks.

PS. Madman, am I still fired?

I'd figure with the car running what it does, the wife would be used to you asking for money to buy stuff, or you already have a set of knee-pads??

Nice !!!
I would hate to see you 1st round, or second, or third....
.017,.019,.007
Impressive.

BTW: Maybe dumb question, but do you run any sort of delay box, or are you in a 'footbrake' class ?
