Mar 29 Pacific Raceways

My kids are on spring break this week. I don't remember ever having a white spring break. How about some global warming, eh?

I tried to get video, but forgot to switch my camera from photo to video, so it only took snapshots. d0h!
The main thing I wanted was to log some WOT, to check the wideband and shift points. Got that and they need some work. Here's to a great 2009 season!

The Best V8 Stories One Small Block at Time
Had to pedal multiple times each run, to keep in the groove and pointed straight. Funny that active handling kicked in for the 10.24 run, heh. That means I was sideways and it applied the brakes to help me out.
Run 1 was 2000 footbrake
Run 2 was 3000 transbrake
R/T was not that good, I was super chicken **** about using the transbrake. A little practice and the nerves will settle. Don was there and saw me get spanked by a rail that went 8.oh.
For a coupla' shake down passes i'd say you were haulin' the mail.
I'll start the wager and say 9.74 @ 151 before the season is done. My bet is one pitcher of barley-pop (of the winners choice) to the motor-head who comes closer.
Congrats and thanks for raising the bar.

PS. this all is contingent on that stock block keeping up its end of the deal. But you've been good to it with lots of fuel and methanol...it should return the favor.
