Today was a rough day. I was not feeling well lastnight and ended up going to bed early thanks to arthritis in my right ankle and foot flaring up. Talk about hurting.....whoa.....

Well luckily today it was not hurting as bad.....so I kept my plans to go to the track to make my license passes. Well much to my surprise after re-wiring the line-loc I find out the solonoid itself had failed. With no time left to replace the line-loc and bleed the brakes....I decide to just go and footbrake it. It worked well enough to get my license and now ready to make some big bottle hits. whoo hooooo

Just thought I would share some finally uneventful successful passes today with no breakage. :D

Heck no.....I will be happy with 7.50s when everything is done and sorted out. Plus the chassis is only a 7.50 chassis. To be honest I should be running NPS but I can't run 7.60 and 50's on one hit and not put a ton to it in one system.

I am just playing the numbers game and being consistant for points. Who knows I might fool lady luck and get a round here and there. LOL

Being outgunned has never stopped me before.....remember the Dart! LOL.....Should change the team name to Underdog Motorsports - We have slingshots and have a good aim.
