Shouldn't be a problem, that part of 95 and beltway is running OK in the morning hours. Evening is other story. I will try to be there tomorrow.

Time to get a few hours of sleep...

...but quick question...

is anyone planning on staying for the event at night? Looks like it's bracket raccing, but for street cars only...

Should be a lot of fun if a bunch of MB's just took over the event haha. $20 to enter...not too shabby.

It is bad news. Jeff and I are both upset because we wanted "true" numbers today. He said he already made appt with MB on Monday and has another track event on Friday.

I guess we have to live with 11.03 @ 124 for now.

110.3 @124 w easy launch is pretty darn good. Looks like the record is in hand with some traction (and a working trans)

That sucks. Is he going to beef up the new tranny or still go with stock? If he goes with stock won't he face the same problems?

According to weather.com it is currently 56 deg, 81% humidity, 30.29" Hg at MIR...good for about -350 DA.

I agree. I hope he does something to beef it up. Not sure what can be done right away. Any ideas?
