Damnit! I'll be in North Jersey with the wife's family celebrating Chanukah and probably won't be back until mid-day Sunday. I just got my rear swaybar relocation mounts too so I can try out Paul's slicks to go for an all out run and have traction this time.

We'll see what time I get home Sunday. If I can talk the wife into leaving early and I can get home by 9-10am, then I may show up as well. I'd like to close out the season with a 10.5 or 10.6 run.

I got the swaybar relo brackets on last night, talk about a pain in the ass with the CHE LCA anti-squat brackets. The I had to friggen get the swaybar ends in place using my jack and they are right on the LCA brackets. Fortunately they don't seem to make any noise.

Paul, could u bring the slicks and a jack so I can give it a shot? Hopefully everything clears for this wheels now. I should get back down to my house around 9am Sunday morning so I should be able to get to the track by 10:30 or so I would guess.

Another idea Paul if you prefer; I can head to your place first and put them on there. I don't know how early you wanted to get to Atco and I need to get some more 110 fuel in the car so if I head to your place first, put on the slicks then I can hit Mighty Joe's for fuel and then to Atco.

Your call Paul.

It really doesn't matter too me. I was talking to Chris and he entioned to have ur bump stop brackets taken off. Some cars had issues with it. I know mine were hitting them very lightly. If u have a hour to spare, I'd cut them off.
Either way is good, my house or track.

Atco is 3 hrs for me, Etown is 1.5, Atco ALWAYS hooks better, Etown makes excuses over the PA all day about how it's too cold ...

Atco had better air yesterday than Etown
Atco -1480 DA
Etown -1369 DA



Just sayin'

Heh...if you want to hot lap you could do 15 runs at Atco on Sunday. I'm sure if I get a good launch and stay in it, it'll be a one and done day for me since I still don't have a bar.

About the bump stops, are they just rubber? I'm just wondering what I have to cut them with. If they are just rubber I'll use a hack saw and shorten them a little.

If you're going Dave, I'll be there. I want to see your Shelby finally. If you can't make it, I'll go next weekend if the weather is good.
