Default Baytown Friday?

Anyone going to be out there. I think Lil Powell and myself are going out there.

He's going to make a few passes on street tires to see how she runs on 19" Nitto INVO's, hopefully he should get kicked out LOL!

I'm going to make a few passes in my car with my new tune. After realizing that the tune that I had was junk, which showed due to the only thing improving in the 1/4 was my ET because I was getting the 60ft down. Now I've got a tune setup that also has a race gas tune which I will be testing out. Hopefully it will let me get my 11sec ET I've been searching for (So far a my best has been a 12.0).

If you go come look for us.

I was really hoping to be out there this Friday, but it doesn't look like it's gonna happen. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the following Friday.

I might head out. I know it will be super packed though. What time is good to get a few runs in before waiting for god knows how long.

I know there's still a few ponies to be pushed out. Once everything is ironed out, I'll put it back on the dyno for some last tweaking and see how she does. It's definitely gonna roll out though.

I will never go to HRP again on a Friday night...I waited for 3 1/2 hours in line for one run along with 16 second trucks bumping bass on 22 inch rims the whole night. To me the street night was a joke...hopefully you guys have a better experience than me...
