Default ATCO tonight 4/24

No Flyers, no Sixers, no Lakes Fun 'n Run on Sat due to probable rain, so TONIGHT looks like its going to be THE night to get our racing fix.

No Gamblers, just street muffled cars & motorcycles.
Gates open @ 4:30PM, racing starts just after 5:00.

I'll be there. Please come up & say hello, or line up against me.

I'm in the 2000 Pewter C5 coupe, no more MRS-COOL tag, now its' YO-EL.

Hope to be hangin with some of you. Mike69 may also be there.

Anyone else?

I got in about 8 runs in 2 hrs!

First four I ran a 12.322 EACH TIME!

I thought the timer was stuck or something.. :lol:

After my car cooled down for an hr for the Quick 8 cars, I ran a 12.28 & then a 12.23.

Lights were set at .000, so seeing .050, .100, etc, takes some getting used to..
Reds are minus numbers, like -.018...

All in all a good night, home by 9:00PM

I used CCW drag package. I think the ET Streets may be too much for my car, 3:15 gears. 60' times were exactly the same as with drag radials.

I may be selling the full package for $300 less than whatever John sells it as.
