The real test is this weekend at Buttonwillow for down shifts and many high rpm up shifts. So far, it's been worth the trouble.

Man I guess all the Lat-g guys are coming to Buttonwillow. And to think they are all sold out for me to run. Depending on work load. I might just cruise out there.

Looks like a get together Friday and Saturday evening are in the works. Shame, I was looking forward to spanking that slow poke you call a pro touring car. I have to think that somebody won't show up and you can slide in?

I have been trying to get a spot for a few weeks. But we are also in full thrash mode around here to get 4 cars to SEMA and as we all know work comes before play. This week is crucial to get our biggest project together for the show. Plus I would hope you would beat me out there, you have been driving and tuning the car for a few years. I get to mess with mine in my spare time. I have alot more time at the goodguys autocross experience then big track time in this car. But Buttonwillow is my home track, I have done quite a few laps in my Mustang back in the day. But if you want to go over to the go kart track where the real side by side action is, I will give up a hundred pounds to you and still take you to school.

It absolutely pains me but I may have to back out of this weekend due to some health issues.... Rodger, I think I have what you need... for both days. I will make the final call in the next day or 2....

It's always the little guys who are pissed after I clean their clock. The part they forget it weight is down force and down force is momentum. The hotter or colder the track the more you will complain.

The problem I'm seeing, Is I bet they check ID. So Unless they will let you transfer it to me and I pay you. I bet it goes to the 3 guys waiting on the waiting list. Just what I'm seeing from begging for 3 weeks for a spot. I even sent them a picture of my hauler so they might think I was someone. That did not help. I even dropped the Earnhardt a few times.....Nothin......
