Some polar vortex **** on its way this week...I may try at least to click a 12.9 so I don't feel like a complete tool bag for being stuck in the 13s.

Going Wednesday, DA won't be great. May not make this Friday(way better DA) and next Wednesday is currently rain so everything is coming out and I'm going for broke. I figure I'll be sitting @ 3100~ with me in it so hoping it will be good for 12s.

If all goes as planned I'll be racing this saturday the 26th.

More boost, race toon and dead-hooker rear springs. I don't even care if the springs help my 60ft, the name is worth doing the mod. lol

DA will be around 4k...

I'll be running that day at Midwest Street Fest. Might rain, but if it doesn't it's supposed to be a high of 76*

10% lower and a Lund toon to utilize 105 octane, based off of (R+M)/2.

Should be looking at another 40whp and 60wtq with this setup.

Safe to say I'm taking a quick break from the competition.

Snapped an axle on the highway no less few days back. Rebuilt everything today and I ran atf thru it for about 5 minutes in 2nd while it was jacked up for a bit and then put some diff fluid in, and then I'll RE-RE-drain that **** and put some diff fluid in there.

LOL I'm sure the 6 back to back track runs I did within 20 minutes or so helped the cause.

Thanks. I had to pull both ****** axles, so I can hit the other end with a long punch to knock out the other half of the goddamn axle out the diff.

From ~10a to 6p today with everything included, with an hour to charge my battery which was dead. LOL

Not feeling too confident in the diff at the moment. Going to cruise it until friday and re-drain. Then I'll see how I'm feeling.

Last thing I would need is a ****** tow 100+ miles away.

Maybe you should trailer your racecar to the track, just like cobros do.

My **** is currently in SD while I sort my VE table...(I suspect my MAF is bad so I decided to start from scratch) Since I have no clue what I'm doing and way too deep to back out now I'm pretty much done with any hope of running again. Better off sorting the tune out and trying again when I can grab some negative DA this fall.

Good luck to those who are still hoping to get a run in.
