1985 Monte Carlo SS known as Barney

[SSLance]

Today's runs... New brake pads changed the car completely...a LOT better. Now the driver has to learn it's limits once again.

Just watch this car in the slalom on the back straight, it's crazy good...

Cool picture from last Sunday, this was on my fastest run of the day on one of the early hard 90 degree turns.



I had a couple course workers tell me it was lifting the rear tire in that turn but I couldn't tell inside the car, no disruption in grip at all there.

Thanks guys...it's been a fun journey for sure, and one that just keeps on going as well.

One thing I notice when looking at pictures of me in the car on track this year...is how different my seating position inside the car is.

Look at this picture from last fall, see how high in the car I am and how hunched forward my shoulders are...



Now look at how lower and further back I am in this picture.



My shoulders are also more relaxed and my grip on the steering wheel is more with just my fingers instead of a fist full of wheel.

I think this seating improvement is helping with my driving and just one more step in the process of becoming faster on the track.

I still haven't 4 corner weighed the car since all of the interior changes but I'm certain I moved some weight off of the front and possibly lost some overall weight with the addition of the much lighter seats and rollbar.

The car looks great, and the video looks like you're plain haulin'. Awesome!
