I was there both days.
Weather was warm but not too bad.
My first time there. Very nice facility,great snack bar and they had a ice cream trick there. Very nice looking lady selling ice cream, I kept going back for more.
Talked to a bunch of racers and they said car count for NSS was very light and fans weren't like it normally is.

I was there for the first time yesterday. I did OK except for the first round loss. Hehehe

Does your car have a FBBODIES decal in the window?

 

[bobtile]

No, I had my hat in the back seat though. I was the car in the super stock field with no decals. You couldn't miss me.

When they did the flag start, I was the first car up.

Yes, first round of eliminations I had an .030 light to her .094. I didn't see her at the line so I lifted and still broke out. I dialed 12.20 and ran 12.17

 

[SUPERSTOCKRACER]

Well I broke out also,in NSS on Sunday so don't feel bad.
Lost in the Hemi Shootout with a 9.422 on a 9.42 dial in on Saturday

but I got 5 time trials on Sunday so i didnt feel cheated.
Going from a .500 full tree to a .400 full tree from Saturday to Sunday threw me way off. My head was playing mind games with my right foot.
Just when you think you have it, your a novice again..

Chris, which car did you take?

 

[Budnicks]

SSR

I though the black or is it dark blue Hemi Car was a "high 8 second" car ??,

what's with the 9.42 dial in ??
can't the light blue car run those #'s easily too ??
were you fishing reeling in/sandbagging ??

or am I thinking of one of your many other racecars ??,

I can't keep them all straight, what's what anymore...LOL...

Just a curious bystander

the 65 hemi belvedere. you can see it in the picture below. I only took it because I could race 2 days Saturday hemi shootout, sunday NSS.

What happened to the 11.80's ??
what's with the 12.20 dial in ??
was the track bad ??
or was the relative air density, heat & humidity that bad ??,

that both you & SSR had to dial them back so much, 0.4 tenths

black dodge mid 8's
light blue dodge high 8's
dark blue Plymouth 9.30-best

The Hemi was running 9.42-9.47 Saturday and Sunday. don't sandbag anymore. My cars are consistent enough that I can just dial my number. If I gonna lose, I ill beat myself on the tree.The DA was horrible at over 3000 feet so going only a .1 slower and jetting down 3 on the Edelbrocks got my A/F right at 12.7-13.1. The air was thick all weekend but livable.

BOBTILE DOESNT LISTEN TO ME SINCE HE'S MR. NENDRA now. He's cutting .004, .007, and .020 lights so he's king now. If he would have changed metering jets instead of metering rods, he wouldn't have lost .4
He's very stubborn.

Horrible air. After the metering rod change, the air changed a little also. I lifted well before the stripe and still broke out. That was an 11 second run easily.

I tune with an stone and a stick. Haven't jetted mine since I put it together. From 98 degree humid summer air last year to 50 in the fall the ET changed .18 This year it hasn't moved much over .10 Still jetted 113 square. Same plugs 120 passes as well. One of these days I'll get around to it.

I think a track car is completely different than a street/strip car. My car is not nearly as consistent.
