When I went to 41 at the very end of last year it was hooking to my liking, and that was on street tires. I'm hopin to get to some 41 events this year.

After they took a break for 15 min at about 10.00 pm Denny the manager sprayed it again about 100ft and rubed in the bald spots with powder,Chris ( CAM ONLY)was the third car out he ran a 10.98 at 122 mph 1.42 60ft,then he hot laped it back in line and they let him go again 10.95 at 122 on a 1.4000 60 ft.For those of you that do not think hat 41 puts down any glue have NO idea what you are talking about. I was pulling my feet off the starting line when i was lining him up,thats how sticky it was!! They sprayed too half track before racing began for the night.

Well in that case, we have a pewter Hawk and a black TA, both LSX powered, that will run any other LSX powered vehicles in your guys' fleet. Let me know, we all will get down for good money.

And yeah, I actually rode the bike for awhile, got a bit cold, and then went home to the old lady...

The track was having a hard time holding most of the cars on the big end...But it got better towards the end of the night. E Hat made a pretty damn good pass, but he still has a few suspension and tune issues.

We also had that red notch with the white hood, and the red SN95 with the skinny kid wing.

The one jagoff track worker almost got his nose broken...That sn95 was making it's first pass of the year, I'm taping it all from off to the side(behind the wall by the burnout box)...And he's jumping around in my face telling me I'm holding up the show.(Even though I'm still taping, the cars are still staging and getting ready to go).

And D SANCHZ looked to be working good last night.

I need a gear and/or a tire on my car bad. The good old 2.73's out back are killing me. Wishing I could have run at least a 12.99 but it wasn't to be. 13.08 @ 108 first time out and pulled the air filter but only improved to a 13.06 @ 108. All in all a fun night though. Seemed like a **** load of LS1 cars there last night.

Did you ever find out what happened to the th400 in the black car?

Did the converter baloon or was it a faulty trans build?

And, sucks to hear the ATI converter isn't working. I was going to buy one when I get my trans rebuilt, but I think I may go with PTC instead.

I just dropped it off with Dave yesterday, and that pic is from the same day it was acting up so he said it's not the converter.

Glad to hear it sounds like he's taking care of it all. I think your car is the only one I've heard of with a trans issue like that(with one of his trans'). Figgy put a whole season of abuse on his and when Dave went through it to freshen it up, everything looked like the car had barely even been driven.

So who know, could have been a faulty part he put in it or something of that nature.
