OK guys I have my new fuel pump and wiring harness in so it is time to spray the car again and try not to hurt it!! If all goes well and the car hooks I should see some new PB's. I will be going to Lakeland this Thursday to see if everything is still working on the spray side and make a few passes if anyone wants to head out.

I was unable to make it last night. was flat broke. new job pays like the government (1st and 15th) so kinda strung out until I get settled into the pay cycle. I may bring it back out next week though. I will have money, and I want to try it with the slicks to see how much difference traction makes on my times. last time out I was able to make almost a half second improvement on my et just fromt he launch. but with an a4 it's not like I can really screw up the rest of the run lol
