First Race of the Season
We finally were able to get to the track last Saturday for our first test session of the 2008 season. It's going to be one heck of a ride this year. With the addition of a newly curved converter, and a change from 10.5 tires, to set of 18.5 Hoosier DOT's. Last season, running both stages, we managed to do a best ET of 8.13. The first pass this season on one stage (125hp) netted us an 8.14 at 166! The plans have already been put into action to up the first stage to 225hp and get it tuned to perfection, then it will be time for stage two. The new tires and converter were just what this car needed to allow us to unload the power we had to kill last season with the smaller tires.
Here is the much awaited video. Please excuse the out of focus part, we were training a new video girl with a new camera.

My grandfather, mom's side, drove a 39 Plymouth coupe when I was about 4 or 5 and I thought it was pretty cool and I loved the tail fins on the 49 Cadillac. I drew cars when I was in the 5th and 6th...
How did you get hooked on cars?
