Thanks, I did have some good runs I was happy with. The funny thing about that butt clincher 180 is that I finished better than I thought, given that I was sideways! It was a 52 second something run, which cracked me up. The car seemed to handle well and brake well also, I just need to update the shocks and springs, some bushing maybe also, as they are all vintage 1989. Some performance brake pads should help also, the napa generics on there now were good but not like performance friction Z pads by any means. I will be out more, I had a great time. I cant make it today, but I'll be out again at the next fairgrounds run.

Oh, and was there anyone else who had a lot harder time with traction in the afternoon session? My car was much looser when it was afternoon, perhaps the heat of the pavement made it more slick.
