Passes were at MIR. Track prep was phenomenal throughout the day. Weather was cold and humid with a falling barometer due to the snowstorm moving in.

 

Damn Boy...unreal **** right there. I get the feeling your not thru yet either !!

Nice pass congrats on the new best, I have been trying to get down there to run with you guys but it is so far away

 

just amazing Gary great job and determination

 

Where are you coming from?

 

Thanks Pitt. Rob and I think there is a little more there. I'm not sure how much we want to chase it.
How is your situation lately?

 

Thanks Dennis. How's things by you? We usually see each other at Atco a couple of times a year.

excellent! 1.40 short time....wow!

 

That would be a ride. We had a couple of guys come down from Canada at our first MIR rental in November; however, we usually run at Atco.

 

Thank you. We believe a 1.36 to 1.38 will be achievable on a track like MIR.

 

How is the rear end holding, and how do you like the 4.10s on the street? I went to 3.90s on my 01 Stroked Vette and regreted it due to no traction for just playing around.

 

This is my 2nd 4.10 rear. I believe my first set let loose do to driver error, The second set is just fine. I love them on the street but I do not get on it. (3.42s were terrible)

 

good very good, other then no traction more then 1/4 throttle on the launch blowing the tires away, going to wait until spring to try again, your car isnt even broken in yet, so im sure you will be setting it untouchable

 

Very nice do you have any vids?

 

Unfortunately, no vid of this pass. There were two short vids of a 10.34 and 10.47 ; however, if you go to the vette-air website in the first post, there is a nice 10.34 vid of an October pass.

 

I'm sure there is some left...lol

Things getting a little better day by day, thx. The Z will have to sit out this racing season though (next few months). Working on the ten-slip for the truck
in the next few weeks. Working on a deal for a scavenge pump that should put me over the edge.

So the heads are not ported? Man if not thats a hell of a pass. Congrats.
