Jesse ran a 14.838@98.95 and I ran a 15.054@92.44 ... For some reason I was only getting 2psi of boost during the entire run. :( A win is a win ... Jesse had a kick ass run!

Don't know.. didn't seem too different to me.. I barely got traction at 2K.. Wish I knew how jesse got any at 4500....

anyway, I ran a big whoopdie doo 15.4... I'm starting to hate the track.

I think mao is still going.. but I heard possibly wednesday because tuesday it might rain... gotta confirm with him. I doubt I will be there because I really can't take off of work right now.. but who knows.

I'm 90% sure I will be there Tuesday night. I thought the resurfacing was great. I got pretty damn good traction and smooth wheel spin with no wheel hopping. Its all about how you engage the clutch and work the throttle. If you hold the throttle at 4500 and pop the clutch, of course you are going to wheel spin uncontrollably. I think I want to try a launch at 4000 but be a bit more aggressive with the throttle as I'm engaging the clutch. I got too much wheel spin in the run above and you can see my 60 foot time wasn't very good.

I want to go back there Tuesday night. I will see if my Luc and Rich are still in. Jesse if you go definitely let me know.

I really did not think the repavement helped me much at all. I tried to run with 32PSI in all 4 tires and bogged out like crazy. I thougt my car stalled cause it spun for so long. I had to lower the front tires to 25PSI to get traction.

And yes I did fall asleep at the wheel. My excuse was wheel spin man. I can't seem to get traction in my car.
