Hope you all enjoy the nice weather down there! Got snow and then rain coming later today. Only track around closed here about six weeks ago when the ice got too thin to race on. No bug problem here yet!

Heck yeah I'm going...... Beech Bend has an event, so we're going to Ohio Valley instead-an 1/8th mile track that hooks like crazy.

Gotta burn up some nitrous......

Thanks Reggie, I thought I already voted. Fatigue has set in. I spent 4 hours putting on turbo headers and mounting the turbo. Very frustrating....... Almost complete. We are probably going to fire it tonight, check for leaks, and start the heat cycling.......

I wish, but the track doesn't open till next weekend, and that's assuming the weather cooperates.

All day T&T both Sat and Sun next week. I'm planning on going on Sat. My son's taking his car too, it'll be his first time at the track as a driver instead of a spectator. I told him we'll line 'em up and I'll give him a 4 second head start. (He drives an Escort ZX2).

We're not the fastest car at the track but we might be having the most fun.

If you're not having fun, then you're taking this stuff too seriously!

All right Reggie, I'm back..... Had an okay day, my track times were a little off, but we had fun. My 60fts were terrible, but who cares. My 1st pass, I blew the tires off. My second pass, I was up against an Plymouth Belvidere with a 440. It wasn't pretty. All I know was he was able to read my "3.8 Nitrous" emblem on my rear bumper. My last pass was against a Foxbody with a cam. I beat him by almost a full second. I have the video of that, but the battery is dead, and it's not my camera, so I don't have the charger.

On another note, I fired up the '02 tonight for the first time after the rebuild, and it lives!!!!!!! I tried to upload to youtube the video of the startup, but it took almost 45 minutes and killed the battery. Time to start the heat cycling, then some mileage before the next dynotune for the new C4.......
