I'll be arriving Saturday morning to run Sportsman and Pro. Just going to race on Saturday. It's going to be interesting how the "new" track works. See ya there.

Had a great weekend with the blueberry. Won little bit of money. And had fun doing it. This car will be in the Winner's Circle in no time. Still getting used to it. I only have 18 runs with the car so far. Both times out I have won money making it to the ladder.

I hooked every time the surface was great. Bradenton does a great job.

Foot breaking it in second gear. Can't seem to take off in first yet. Keep on red lighting. Will try something different next time I go to the track maybe take off at idle. It's worth a try.

Interesting. Did not know that was possible LOL.

I too have a C4 with solid axle (383 w/D1SC) and 4L80.

Good luck with your future races.

I didn't know you can do it either until a friend told me if you have a th350 you can do that. It's slowed the car down but that's okay I'm bracket racing anyway. Shouldn't hurt anything. And I was worried about my reaction times and they seem to be good. Haven't really had a lot of time trying to test it. So I will test it in competition.....lol
