Default Thanks again Madman! You rock! 8.81 @ 155 mph

went to milan today, did alot of waiting. my day almost ended early, i drove over something that punched a hole in my moroso DS2

but Rocky's Pit stop had a plug for my front tire! how cool is that.

i worked with Madman a few weeks back when i set my suspension up on the car, he was a great help, he helped me get the car very close to where it needs to be, if not near perfect. unfortunately he is down south, and well, i am in the land of the great white north. i will be shipping a case of canadian 'pop'' to you

only had a one chance to run the fogger - 1.30 60' (track actually was not as good as it usually is) bars came in handy, just barely but they were there for me.

5.64 @ 123.62 mph in the 1/8th
8.81 @ 155.05 mph

thanks to Randy (Crew Chief) for partaking in the fun today. this was a new slightly larger tune up than I have run in some time, It will take me about 2-3 passes to get it just right. It was way fat, and I wasn't shifting to the light but rather to the sound of the motor.
now i am thinking why i didn't turn on the fogger earlier this year.... oh yeah i was having fun on the street all year

as always , big thanks to bryan for developing and building one badass SBC, with more than a little help along the way.
one more chance this year to get her out. umm i think it is time for a cold one!!!!!
