That's why I like 41. I went 10s with an out of date motorcycle helmet, and an out of date harness(only the lap belt portion). Oh, and no blow down tube on the bottle, etc.

Yeah but bald spots in the groove and ******* track officials don't make it any better, espcially since I live 2 minutes from 66 and 1.5 hours from 41. I should be good to go by next week when I make a chain guard that passes inspection.

Like I said before, a friend had to jump the wall and stop a car from making a pass...Because the car before hand dropped some oil after the 1320, and Denny just shrugged it off.

I'm thinking we can head on out to the lansing carshow saturday?

Are you still on the 10 bolt?

What are you launching at?

I really want to take my car Friday at 66 so it can hook!

yes sir, the crappy stock 10 bolt with bald street tires. I hold it about 2800-3000rpm then let the clutch out pretty quick on the launch. I can usually get a 2.0 60' with that method.

Matt I thought you were like giving up racing. I haen't been arround here too much lately but it seems like you are back in it with both bike and car. Glad for ya. Glad to see you keep it at the track too. You could probably give talks to High Schoolers about the dangers of street racing. No offense intended on that. I mean it. Jim
