    The air at Atco was superb! The track (for me, anyway) was hooking fine.

    I leaned the carb out quite a bit, based on Paul Cassidy's dyno session.

    R/T.... .041
    60'..... 1.95
    1/4.... 13.36@102.14

    Yay ME!!!!!!!!

    Hey 69sky... GREAT SHOT!!!! That's my brother in the far lane in his '03 Cobra. I blew his ever-livin' DOORS OFF TWICE today!!! Yes, he had zero traction in 1st and 2nd gear, but that doesn't mean anything in the scheme of racing!

    Hey sky, please refresh my memory... what is your 1st name?

    It's Ch... pronounced (Shea).

    FTR, I really thought there would be more pre '73 Buicks at Atco. I was hoping to see some 68-69 cars to see what they had under the hood. There sure were a lot of GN's and Regals though.

    I was dissapointed to see so many Buicks go down to the Mustangs today during the Round Robin. Of course, most of the Buicks had a .5 to 2-3 second delay at the 'tree'.

    Oh well, enough of my rambling...

    Nothing THAT dramatic .... :rolleyes:

    Im just NOT going to refill the winshield washer bottle. I figure with THAT much less weight and spit-shining the Hood tach lense on Da Wagon should be good enough to keep Beth off BigRed's heels :pp :moonu:

    Yo!! Yardman,
    It was great watchin you eat that mustang!! :TU: Sorry I didn't get a chance to talk to you. I was in the stands most of the day enjoying the racing.
    I could've swore you were jinxed when the first 3 times after your burn-out and coming to the tree,they stopped the racing to fix problems with the track!! I could only laugh imaging your lanquage at the time,
    What was up with that???? Or am I the only one who realized it was "always when you were up???
    Congatulations on your new times :beer :beer .
    PS I didn't get to see what tires you were running what were they?? :Do No:

    Congratulations Jeff! I bet the car felt really good on those passes! What was the previous best, 13.52 or 13.72 - I can't remember exactly? That's a nice improvement. Awesome!

    Based on our discussions, what'd you end up with for jets? Just wondering how big of a drop you went in sizes.

    Paul
