I may try to show up this Saturday for the test and tune at Sacramento Raceway. Gates open @ 10:00 Am... Testing from Noon to 4PM. Any NorCal guys want to meet me there?
 
Are there any Sacramento Mopar guys with a video camera? SRTBrad can't make this weekend and I hope to set a new NA record this weekend. I have the new BBK prototype throttle body and a brand new set of M&H 390-40-17 Drag Radials. I'm hoping the extra 20+ FTLBs of torque on the low end will launch me better out of the hole once traction is established. I also expect the extra 12 HP on the high end will improve my times by at least a tenth and 1-2 MPH. I feel that if I can get in the area of a 1.75 60' then an 11.99 might be possible. But since last time the best I could do was 1.95 60' ... I might be dreaming... but I feel confident I will do better than 12.34...watch out ArrestmeRed.

I will be there for sure, I'm leaving Bakersfield in about 1/2 hour and should be in Sacramento before 10 PM. Hopefully I will see some Norcal guys tomorrow at the track. Thanks for the well wishes Mopar and Ronnie and Brad. I will try to do us proud. By the way...Moparracing, last time those 60' foot times were on 3 year old tires, I just got some Brand New M&H's.....so there should be some improvement. Looks like the temp tomorrow will be between 64 and 67 degrees, humidity @ 59% and less than 3 mph wind, so I'm hoping for a real good run.
