Yeah, WERA rules require tha the snorkel be in the air box, and you can't use SV tank spacers. There were no complaints after qualifying, but it's still my fault.
I needed to have taller gearing. The wind changed, and I was running right at red line into the dip at the back going into ten.
Was fun, though. I haven't been to a GNF since 1987, and I've received invitations to Suzuki Cup Finals since 1989. It was something I wanted to do, and it's a lot of work getting Atlanta figured out. I have a little time left that I could have certainly used, but I got into the 32's, which was better than I expected of myself.
Saturday night, I had a huge dizziness episode that had me in bed with a garbage can next to me. I don't know if it was something that I ate that I'm allergic to or what, but it kind of took the wind out of my sails. On Sunday morning, I was wishing that we had the race on Saturday...LOL!
I'm looking forward to getting home now. We're at Heartland Park Topeka right now.
Wow Dave! Don't you hate the drive back? I'm glad we didn't have to do that very often.
LOL! Yeah, it kinda sucks.
I'm back here next Monday on the 22nd also.
It would be cool if their was a map showing were we all live .
It's hard to get an idea were we could find a common track to visit or watch .
Seems alot of you are along ways away.
I'm only 20 miles from joliet 120 miles BHF.

tOm you are from Omaha! And it was good to follow you around at Heartland. :cheers:
I have a pro-street 427 Fairlane today. It does wheelies! I remember Daves AMX, it was a cool car.
I took Juan for a ride in the AMX. He was sKeered... :ahhh: He has a zipper knee too.
