TMR @ Island Today

Got there very late, 2:30 to be exact! Still managed 5 runs!
Got my new Mickey E.T. Streets on, changed the rear brakes from disc to drum.
The converter is too tight, I was only launching at 2500 RPM, I will be sending it out soon.

Here are some pics










Here is a video with my best 60' 1.402. 10.60@124
Best e.t. for the day was 10.59@124

Looks good. What do you have for rear suspension? Caltracs and what spring?

Thats what I was thinking. I liked when I had matched tires but I like hooking better!

Thanks. I will have to introduce myself next time, I didnt know anyone from this site worked there, besides Melissa of course! A lot of new faces in the staging lanes and box this year. It was good to get out there again. You'll be seeing a lot of us this year, I run points on Saturday and go once in a while on Fridays and Sundays.
