I'm in for the party Ken.

Are spouses cool? Not sure if the wife will be up for it (she's going to a big party Saturday night) but I better offer her an invite if I want to keep my junk attached.

Now when Muncie says "Lots of VHT" does that mean that they actually use it?

I was going high 1.4s in the 60 last year and then they finally did this on the last night and went two 1.45s back to back....wish they would prep it better more often!

Most of the times I've been at Muncie, they seem more apt to use Crisco than VHT.

I've spent so much time at tracks like Valdosta, GA and Norwalk, OH, that I've gotten spoiled with professional facilities and their liberal track prep.

Hard to say what it is going to do, I clicked on different links and got differnet info... This is the one I'm hoping is correct.

Mostly cloudy. Highs around 60. Northwest winds around 5 mph shifting to the southwest up to 5 mph in the afternoon.

Only time will tell... Bob

We're hoping they have the track prepped for kill!!!!! This GTO is a stick car on drag radials. It's going to need all the prep in the world... lol Bob

It will spin the tires, Brent will have to short shift into second.....he will miss third...that's about the time I drive on by at half track in my Caddy...eating nachos and drinking hot cocoa. Brent, I will save you some for when you get to the turn off!

Hopefully the thing hooks and rearend holds up better than it did at Memphis! Good luck guys.

I didn't know if you made it, I saw several black GTO's at the track. The track was hooking, Brent came out at 4000 on the first run and it hooked so hard it bogged. It went a 2.?? 60 ft, granny shifted it to a 11.30 or so at 134 mph on that run with the blower belt slipping. We tightened down the blower belt and Brent went back to the line for his 2nd run and came out at 6000 rpm. Keep in mind this 809 rwhp GTO has a Moser M9 with a Wavetrac, 3.50 gears now and a torque arm, with M/T 325/50R15's. Something broke in the built 6 speed trans, car doesn't move in any gear.... Oh, did I mention I drove this GTO to the track... We needed to get break in miles on the drivetrain. We're picking it up today. This car desperately needs a 4L80E transmission. Bob

Nope, didn't make it. I didn't get out of work until after 7pm. Murphy's Law gets me EVERY time...

Did it break on the launch, or down track? I agree, time for an AUTO.

Looks like Brent needs to invest in the driver mod.

Anymore, you're lucky you still have a job to leave late from.

It broke on the launch, it didn't like 6000 rpm... We'll be back with it, hopefully still this year. Bob
