    NMCA @ Norwalk 8/26-8/28

    We are going up to Norwalk for the NMCA world Finals this weekend to run True Street.

    I tested Thursday and Saturday nights and feel like I'm ready .... Everything against my every being, less RPM and less Boost so we will see. I fear I'm still going to be chasing a tune up (tune down?) as the air looks a lot better.


    If your going, look us up.

    Edit - crap I cant edit the thread title, it's 8/26-8/28

    Both my wallet and back have bought into this new plan, my heart not so much. I ran Thursday and Saturday in soup air at roughly a 10.90 level and the parts was happy.

    I do have an issue that unique to small displacement racing ... The car will leave the line wheels up, go 1.50 60', but when it gets out 20' the RPM drop hits it's trough and it will flirt with a bog and then go 1.60 60' ... seems like 4/5 times it's ok, but that 1/5 is fatal. I am hoping the thick air is what was killing it and it will pull through that in better air ... If it doesn't I will be well under the index and have to play top end games to race. Never ending trade off's.
