Got to the track anyway last nite. The fishin' trip got cut short due to the lack of interest of the big ones.

Slow nite--only got 5 passes in--track is going to stay open from 6 -11pm rest of summer if they get 100 or more vehicles--see my thread "Steve's going....." for times and stuff.

Catch you later.

Son-of-a-gun. Her Highness asked me yesterday afternoon if I was going to the track. I said no because the guy I would hook up with was going fishing. And now you type that you were there.

I read your other post. COOL. But I can't believe your drove there and back on those slicks.

 

Hey! They're DOT legal(hahahaha). No rain---No problem.

Sorry, I should have called you--next Fri.?

Btw, lot of people, young & older, came by to look at my L and ask questions. One 15(?) yr. old kid (he seemed to know more about eng., s/c, turbos, trans., etc. than probably 50% of the people there) kept trying to convince me my L needed headers. I mentioned that these engs. apparently need some/more back pressure. A guy about my age (an air flow engineer from Robins AFB) that was also in on the conversation, agreed with me(does that mean the AF is in trouble?).

Another young(30's--egineer at Robins, too) guy who I've become friends with before, wanted to know all about the 'oil breather cap'--did it work? It seems his LSI Camaro has oil/throttle body/intake concerns too. He said he's having to add a quart every 2,000 miles or so.

Three older guys stopped by and asked me if I had got my new tires at Big T's? "Yes". He said to stop by and say "hello" and watch me run.

Nice people....

I'll be out of town next Fri. We'll shoot for the next one.

I need to check out your L.

Do you run into any other L's at that track?

 

Can remember only two. First time, Master Loggie(logisticion at Robins AFB) took his red 99/00(?) but ran poorly(14.xx) because he had installed a larger dia. (315x?x18) street tire. Said he won't return 'til he gets some smaller dia. rear tires--he also is waiting for a lower pulley.

There was a black new 01 there a couple of wks. ago. He ran badly also--because of a sensor problem(?)--self-induced when he changed his air fillter--wouldn't shift?

So, come on down. I need help holdin' up the flag!
