Race today was called off on account of too much wind for the cones, and too much wind, sand and flying balls of seafoam for the timers Bunch of people stayed for some timerless fun runs, though.

I only took 2 quick runs but i could nail that u-turn at the bottom perfect. too bad it was so windy it would have been interesting to see where i would have placed.

It was pretty fun and very coldd out there today. I kinda wish I had drove in the second heat, driving in the rain wouldve been a learning experience. Next time I'm gonna have to watch my fuel level. I barely had enough to finish all the runs and get to a gas station. I might try out the full tank approach next time in hopes of seeing some handling improvements.

Yeah Quick26, you couldn't put down the power at all, but you were running in the wet. I had similar issues with cold tires, car wouldn't bite, wouldn't turn for nothing. I'm pissed that this morning I found cone scratchs on the brand new paint on the nose, had to be the one I took head on heading back up the hill after the first u turn.

Did anyone notice if my car was any louder? I was running the new Hooker Cat back for the first time. I can't tell a difference in it inside the car.

i did not see you after, but yes it sounds good. not obnoxiously loud but has a good tone.

if i tried to drive it in you could hear the fronts chatter from sliding lol.

normally i run with the radio off so i can hear my exhaust out there, the last run yesterday i truned up the radio and had fun, seemed to work better

you can prolly buff it out. i would think its just scuffed a lil.
