I'll be running. There are no dumb questions. DR's on a 6 speed are kinda tricky to figure out. I'd start out around 17psi and go from there. You want as much PSI as you can get away with without spinning. RPM depends on the track. When I had DR's I always started out about 3500rpm and changed according to the track. If you bog, you need more rpm, spin needs less. DR's and a 6 speed require A TON of practice to get em figured out

What's up Chris and Wayne? Been busy with the move and haven't had a computer, but my wife's been keeping me posted about what's going on. Ya'll know I'm down to help any way that I can. With my new schedule, I'm off every other weekend which means more play time ( Finally ). Still haven't gotten my rear yet, do to the move I had to wait again, but should have it before we get things kicked off this year. Can't wait to run with ya'll again.

Verts are beautiful at the track, I have a full weight 2002 SS best pass 12.656@ 110.32 mph with 1.915 r/t. Listen to what cainsw tells you and don't be afraid to ask him anything. He gets off on helping out and he's good at it.

It's working out good. Just about settled in. The types of race classes sounds good to me. Those two will narrow it down alot and be less confusing. I have to work all weekend, but don't go in until 6pm so I'm gonna try to ride up saturday early and visit with everyone before I have to go to work.

I got a new best 60ft! 1.59 I finally got the 1.60 monkey off my back! I also think I'll be swapping my big cam back for my small cam. Looking at my split times and comparing to all my other runs from the past, it didn't pick up anything. Same DA same mph

Made a little visit to Red River Raceway today, man it was pretty out today. It was good to see so many of the guys & gals out having a good time in the sun. Bud had a flock or a herd of goats buzzing around today. Bud you need to get them out to the events this year. So anyway I sat down with Molly for a talk and she will be taking our EFI Racing five race dates to Houston for the Division 4 meeting and they will be placed on the RRR 2008 schedule, March 15th St. Patricks Day Bash, May 31th Memorial Day Drags, July 19th Summer Heat, Sept. 6th Labor Day Run, Nov. 22nd Turkey Shootout. These dates are not set in stone as they have not been double checked. The EFI Racing board is up and running at http://efiracing.proboards92.com if you get the time drop by and register.

Nope, I have two. An 8 yr old and a 5yr old.
Cams are easy. I just swapped one last week. It's just a PITA to get the damn crank pulley off. Post up whenever you decide to do it. It really is easy
