Another test and tune has been added on Jan. 16th, 2009. Although not mandatory I do suggest sending your cars out for some T&T. This gives me a chance to spend a little time with each car to make sure it will get down the track with no problems. Usually the National weekends are busy around here and I'm not able to spend much time with the cars except for qualifying. Qualifying for the Nat's will be two passes. One in each lane. We'll run the cars one time, let them cool and then run them on their final qualifying pass.

Sam, if you burn out over the line in Pro Stock, it's legal.
But you gotta disqualify any car that goes over the line in Super Stock and Stock, right?

LOL, that's too much pressure Phil. I think as long as nobody gets sideways and tears up the tree or runs over the starter guy like Nightrider did for the grudge match, then we will allow it.

T&T #2 Results in no particular orderBondoman #9Car weight 22.4 Grams Best run .4009 @ 36.89 Comments Need to get front wheels to roll freely. I took the axle off and it picked up .03 also I switched your pinion gear to a 7 Tooth. Gained a .01 with the 7T. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rapid Richard #3 DodgeCar weight 19.1 grams Best run .3904 @ 36.66 mph. Comments Switched to a 22 Tooth Crown gear and it gained .016. I also adjusted the endbell timing to full advance (driver side down on bottom of chassis). Went .02 quicker. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ragu #15 FordCar weight 20.5 grams Best run .3855 @ 41.30 mph. Comments Changed out the stock pick up shoes for BSRT's #249. Ran .01 better. Find some smaller O.D. O-rings for the front. Need to get the front tires around .350" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HO Bob #32 ChevyCar weight 20.6 grams Best run .3798 @ 38.09 mph. Comments Changed your crown gear to a 22 Tooth. It ran a best of .3928 with the 23 Tooth. The front tires went flying on the first pass.

Alright the last two pictures have been added. Shepard showed up a few hours ago. I'm working on your body Derwood, still in primer. Should be shooting paint on it this Sunday.
I'll have results up in a few hours. This is not a live event. We will have Live qualifying on Feb. 13th and Live Eliminations on Feb. 15th.
