Good luck! If you can, pls check with the folks there about a rental in late Sep, early Oct. I've sent several emails with only vague responses. I think 1 lane will do, got to break in the new car!

Obviously missed the day, but I need to get down there before I install some mods to my C63 coupe. Must have the before and after figures, and a few dyno pulls from CarbCon. Cheers, hope to see you down at PRW.

Got there a little late due to traffic. Only got 3 runs. Track had to be cleaned up about 3-4 times and waiting for the competitions to go took for ever. Good weather though. I did nothing good at all. I was running lower boost than normal and had my shift points all messed up. Really just wanted to go for fun and some data logs. Best run was low 13.-- at 108. Pretty far off from last year in the low 12.-- at 114. I think my wide band is not reading correctly and I am really rich to. I run e85 so it does not really smoke when to rich.
I think there is a weekend tnt coming up though in a couple of weeks.

HA! A little traffic? Traffic BLOWS around here!

And I am surprised you got 3 runs in. Pacific takes forever in between runs. Pacific is much closer than Bremerton but Bremerton moves thru racers a lot quicker, you get a few more runs, and its on an ever so slight slope so you get slightly quicker ET's there

I'll still go to Pacific with you guys after mid July anyways, but most of the time it's a long waiting game there

The waiting time and assortment of other vehicles is why I'm trying to get a track rental. Hopefully I can get some info back.

Looks like Wed the 25th should be a good night. Lets get out there. No Car club on the schedule. Just HS and bikes. Weather forecast is good. Dry and not very hot. Hope to have my fueling issues solved by then and if not just going to run some race gas instead of e85. Finally got some drag radials on some rims that fit my car.
