Elmer, Its the "new us41" because they actually bought a tire chuck. HA!!! You said it best, all they do is take our money and put not a damn dime back in the place. Last 2 times there the bathrooms were completely flooded from toilets backing up. Smelled like **** a block away. You mean to tell me they dont profit enough from SCC to get a plumber out and fix some things?

It takes money to make money...............

Sorry i did not make it out,i got tied up at home with yard work and also worked on the Firebird a bit.Nice pass though Larry,11.000.I remember back when Mangus made 15-16 runs and had a best of 11.000 and thought he could not break into the 10s.I told him to try launching lowere at around 3000 rpm and 2 runs later 10.98. Never use the toilets in that **** house.Go to the tower and bang on the door like you need to ask them a question,then use the one in the tower! on the way out.Looks like street car chaos on Sunday the 11th will be annother good day if the rain holds off,forcast is for a high of 50 degrees.

yeh..I was surprised not to see you guys.

I can drive a 6 speed car well obviously, but with little seat time in this car I could still use some work. I want to get a shift light in it this week to help be more consistent.

I'm going to run the True Street / Real Street class @ GLD this Sat with the car.

11.50 cap

obviously going to launch much easier and roll the gears out the back

Rob will be driving the green car in the event. He says he wants to race you first round for the cam in your Lt1.
