Default HRP Friday 11/19/10

DA may be in the negative 1000 or better range. Low of 38, high of 68. Too good of weather to pass up.

One thing I learned about running in cold weather is if you have drag radials, heat those suckers up, and heat them up good.

May also make 11/21/10, not sure.

I won't have any new mods so will be there again in the programmer only car. Likely will slap the ET Streets on and go for 11s again (or break!! haha).

I like to get there when the gates open to allow the car to cool a bit and get the tires switched over, plus I work at 11pm so usually have to leave around 9:30

Very tempting, but headed out to the deer lease despite the perfect track weather.

For being one of the most known tracks in the US they are HORRIBLE about getting things fixed.

About 1.5 years ago some of the lights on the boards were out....for MONTHS. You could never tell what times people were running. It was ridiculous.

Not sure for an auto helmet, but cycle gear or Pasadena Kawasaki have M cycle helmets. No the scales were still closed last weekend.

Big head is an understatment - looks like a pumpkin on a fence post. Charlie Brown once told him "damn you got a big head". His helmet wont fit, better bring your own. Lol
