Talking First time ever at the track!!!!!!

Well all in all it was a great day, and I know my truck has some more left in it. I was hot lapping all afternoon, I made 9 passes in 1.5 hours. I never iced my truck down all afternoon.

Final pass of the day was a 12.59 @ 112.70 .653 reaction and a 8.220 1/8th @ 90.73.

I had a half tank of gas and cover on. Only thing I have removed was my spare and hitch (they are always off).

I was running my ET Streets @ 16.5 psi cold. All my mods are in the sig.

Nice run. You're running a 6 lb, aren't you? Half a half tank--is that something like a quarter tank? Black-it will go faster. The hood is sharp. Good looking L.

Great times Joe. I told you that you can get in alot of runs there. Doesn't sound like it was too crowded there. Are you going to Milan on the 4th of May?

He runs the JDM 49/69 chip. He got a 1.84 60'. All he needs now is a converter.

Sorry this took a while for me to get back to everyone but I had a bachelor party last night

Anyway to answer a few questions (since Jeff messed up a few numbers) I do run Jim's flip chip. It was on race side for that run. Here is the slip.

Hey Mike......should have gone man we could have battled it out for fastest street machine there
There were not alot of people there at all. The weather was perfect sunny and 42!!!

As for Milan, I don't think I am going to be able to make it.....guess I will have to run at Stanton or something

Hey Greg,

Yes it was at Lapeer. I am sure you know the track is a dive but for my first time racing it was a great place to learn

I don't even think they know what VHT is
