Well quick update. I did stop by my parents house and checked on the car. (I needed my Hp tunners interface from the car) I fired it up and let it run for awhile. It was good to hear it run makes me itch to get back to racing.

I hace started gathering some parts. I ordered some fresh tire and Turbo blanket.




I am also made a big upgrade in the trailer department. I sold my Open 18ft trailer and bought a 24ft enclosed Haul Mark




I have also been busy working on converting my car port into a garage at my house. Will be nice when it is finished. 37'x16'

Well I have been busy working on the trailer getting the inside of it all ready for use. The trailer was completely unfinished inside. I painted all the walls white. I also painted the floor gray with an anti slip paint (gritty). I also installed two cabinets for storage. I also freed the car from my parents today so that I can start working on the few little things. I also took it for a spin today for the fist time in 3 months. ah it feels good to go fast again.

With the trailer door where it is on the side, are you able to open your drivers door while the car is parked in the trailer?

I hate climbing in and out of my window and or t-top when the car is in our enclosed.

Yes the car door opens out the escape door

well I made the trip to Cecil this past Saturday for there first Saturday TNT of the year.

It was really cold high 30s and windy. I was also the fastest car there all day of mahybe 40-45 racers. I made the outting on my old tires and the only change from last year was adding the turbo blanket.

Track prep was ok. I had to take about 3-400 rpm off my launch RPM to get the car to hook I also didn't turn the boost up too much maybe 14 psi.

I did manage to run a 9.6@143 on 8.5psi which I thought was pretty good.

I also ran a 8.99@154 with a 1.404 60' on 14psi car felt like it was skating around pretty good.

I did notice in some of my logs that my IAT senors is dropping out at times so I need to fix that. looks like it might be a pin tension issue.

I have video that I will try and get editied down and posted up later. Felt good to get out and run the car again

I'm very jealous of the new trailer.
