shots from the garage...
Got 2 out of 3 days of racing in as the big R word ended our weekend. Air shifter still having issues so we just set the shift light low and tried to run the number. Had things dialed in pretty decent and made it to rnd 4 Saturday. Was up against a dragster in box/no box and when I went up on the brake and a noise took my attention away and threw that run out the window. Sunday in round 3 I went up on the trans brake and it bogged when released..... another new way to lose. Carb is coming apart for a look see. Damn header tube started loosening again so we took the Remflex gasket off and used gray RTV.... all good now and staying tight. I’ll be removing all the gaskets and going rtv on them all. Sunday 2 test passes and 1st round all has 1.242 60 times. Track prep must have been better as the front end came up a little more than what we’d seen Saturday or back in Bakersfield a few weeks ago. Not real bad, but I was liking the launches that didn’t involve the wheelie bars.
Now for the fun part.... it took us 16hrs to go 420 miles Tuesday. The predicted arctic blast storm was no joke and we got caught up in it. 2 road closures on the I80 coming across Wyo.
either way it was nice to load a car that won’t need a ton of work before the next race.
