Re: Dumb*** move of the day
Lee,
You called with a dead motor. Then my other friend Bob showed up with his 93. While gassing up at the BP, he noticed a screw in his rear driver's side drag radial. I should have figured the stars were misaligned. The track sucked. Huge crowd of fuelers, sport bikes, Super Comp etc. Little time for test and tune. On my second pass, I hit second gear and the car just sat there revving at 7k. Then it began to pivot towards the outside of the track. Let off and got it back going straight but damage was done. The guy in the LS-7 C5 Z had a problem at the same time. Turns out his clutch was goin. 2 bad passes and I got outta there. Sorry it cost you $100. Maybe US 41 will be a different story on the 11th. |
