Default Test & Tune, June 23 or 24th?

I was looking at the calendar since we don't have a CCC race until July 5th, I was curious if anyone was planning on doing some Test & Tune this coming weekend...

Pacific has an open T&T on Friday night, doesn't look like they have much else that night besides Junior drags.

On Saturday Bremerton has Test & Tune along with a non-electronics shootout (there's an electronics shootout, too, but I don't think we have anyone here that runs electronics).

I wanna get the Formula out and do some full out runs at try to get deeper into the 12's (I know it's there), so I'm probably gonna go to one or the other.

Does not sound like a bad idea at least we could get some runs in.

Weather forecast looks a lot better for the next week, too.. and we should get some cool weather either in the morning, or after the sun goes down.

The only thing I know of going on that weekend is that there's the Greenwood car show on Saturday.

If I get my car back together, likely I'll make them all. Gotta try and catch Mark.

Not at the moment... I have a few tricks up my sleeve, but I just wanna find out what the car will do WITHOUT torque management ******* me up. I turned that **** off and gained .05-.1 on my 60 foot times, and my E/Ts dropped by a couple tenths. Ran a 12.98 right out of the gate on Saturday morning, and I know there's more in the car still. Plus I've been hitting the practice tree like crazy.. hehehe.

I think it will be a much closer race now.

Sounds good to me, I might be up for Saturday at Pacific. I may try my luck up at Evergreen just to practice the light timing on friday nights.

Saturday at Pacific is the motorcycle drags... no cars. Friday's open at Pacific, and Saturday is open at Bremerton.

If we continue to get treated like **** I'm gonna start running for money at the track. Every Friday or Saturday.

I say we hop in the test and tune lanes when we go next time and do double time. What are they gonna say? **** em I say. I'm damned tired of getting treated like **** and watch the rookies in the test and tune lanes get to hot lap.

I'll run pro bracket if that's what it takes. There used to be a "heavy bracket" back in the day when I raced my Chevelle there. Mid 80's. It was 13.99-11.00 and the pro bracket was 10.99 to 9.00 Street bracket was 14.00 and up. Back then a 13 second street car was damned fast.

Not sure if my car will be running or not.

I think I'm gonna start doing the thing at Bremerton where I run pro bracket AND CCC at the same time, so that I get double the amount of runs. Who gives a crap if I go out first round, I know I'll get at least 7 or 8 passes.

Only problem with that at PacRac is that they made us take our CCC numbers as our permanent track numbers to avoid confusion.
