Title: july 4th test & tune at mission raceway....
Post by: silas on July 06, 2008, 01:23:24 AM
good day. no rain. lots of mosquitoes. tons of laughs. hardly any cars out so that meant alot of runs could be had.

darren k was fighting n2o troubles but got some good mapping done with his new efi motor. even if the times werent there (skipping the burnout box & easing off the line) he was laying down some serious power & great mph without the bottle.

jim battled some misfire issues early in the day and some jetting woes ;) but got it all sorted out and his best time of the day was 11.5 @ 116mph.

ah yes great times at mission .
big thanks to silas from darren and myself for doing double duty helping pit for both of us !!!
its a lot of work helping out two knuckle heads like us.
but it was a lot of fun .the way a day at mission should be.
yes darren and myself had our work cut out for us trying to get some new motor and nitrous combinations working .and of course those nasty gremils snuck up on us a few times .as they say if your happy the way your car runs don't race it .but,if you want to learn something , go racing.
although progress was made and we were both happy to get a good day under our belts ,we are readying ourselves for our next attack on august 8th t& t .
