Hehehe... thanks for the ego bolster.
After our "fun in the sun" at Atco that day, Brian offered to sell my some wheels that will help with my "all show but no go" spinning off the line after the gear change. I'm hoping to get the Sunday cruiser out of the 14's.

sigh... one mod, step by step....

Ron maybe you should order a set of Drag radials now. If you do and want the wheels before SLP day I'll make a "special" trip just for you and bring them up. I should have the other night. I was up off of 309 not too far from ya.

Jim, I'm seriously considering it cause my reaction times are much more consistant.. but I'm about .100-.150. I dont think I have ever messed with front tire pressure anyway. I usually keep it at 40 and walk away. I may have to try it out at Atco some night for a tnt.

My problem now is that in this weather the car will most likely dip into the 11's... I need to go buy a fire jacket.

Brian, deep staging will put you .000 to .050, right where you need to be. I'll bring my fire jacket, I don't think I'll be required to wear it. In the cool weather I may dip into the mid 14's. However beware my friend, this slug has put several 9, 10, and 11 second cars back on their trailers.
