Man, I wish I could have made it. I have to see how the new combo will run in the Olds. I guess the sunshine scared people away. I hear there weren't many cars. My buddy had 7 passes.

How goes the tuning, Bob? Quicker than me yet?? :D Well, than the 362, anyway? Hopefully we see how the 461 does tomorrow.
Yeah, anyone who thinks you only get 2 runs on TNT at PRP is crazy. They have been making sure you get atleast 3 but most of the time more.
Does yours run???? Havent seen it at the trackOriginally Posted by CobraII
Seriously though, no. I have had glimmers of hope from running new best 60's three runs in a row last Saturday to some strong MPH for the current boost level (110 mph at 21 psi). I havent even come close however to putting them all together on the same pass yet, and it's all over the place right now.
The good news is, there is hope in my data ;) Right now dialing the car is going to be a joke.

hmmmmmm.... I will give you the location of 5 or 6 bathroom walls that say different
Oh wait.... Maybe they say "is a little" rather than "has a little".....
must have been a lot of crazy people last year, because that happened more than once.
I'm sure that will change when either:
a) the economy improves and people can afford to have/run their toys again, and/or
b) word of mouth gets out to the disgruntled masses that you actually get more than 2-3 runs.
Then it will be right back to "This is TnT, you get what you get" blared through the PA system.
HAHA how did I know you would be the one to post. I'm not going to get into this conversation with you again. You're right and you know all :)
I tried my best not to reply ... honest!

I guess I'm spoiled. I usually make 12-15 passes on a test and tune day and could run more if I wanted. If I spent all day at the track and only got two passes that would suck.
We normally get three and occasionally four time trials on race night before eliminations start.
I'm sure PRP's a nice track, but I'm a Beaver lover. Of course I live a little closer to BSD than most of you guys.

OFR - old fart racing
We aren't the fastest car at the track, but we might be having the most fun!
Best so far - 11.957 @ 117.09 on 10-18-08
TNT is only from 6-10pm and if you only get 2 runs its usually because someone blew up and oiled down the whole 1/4. Beaver is a nice track, but every track has their pros and cons.
That's why I threw in the qualifier about the 362. :DDoes yours run???? Havent seen it at the track

We'll find out about the 461 Wednesday night, hopefully. It sounds good in the garage.
I hope it all works out great, Bob.
I'm a Beaver lover too. As for Beaver Springs Dragway, it's ok. :D
I've been to BSD, and I like the place just fine. Bob is one helluva promoter. However, the car count there compared to PRP is considerably lower, allowing for more runs.
PRP works very hard at providing as many runs as possible, on a track as safe as possible. I would rather they clean up after a leaker, than not look at it and keep sending cars down the track.
See ya there probably ;) They all sound strong in the garage. I wish we could race in mine :D
LOL very true. :D
