WCCC race
I went to the WCCC today, went out in the first round...darn it!
Went 14.62 @97 mph, not too bad considering the 2.59 end and not racing for 31 years
Now that 3.55 end gear........

Hey Grape.
Welcome back to racing. What and where did you race 31 years ago?
I came back to racing in '02 after 22 years out of the seat and it takes some practice to get back into a competitive reaction time and to tune up your top end driving "skills". Welcome back and hope to see you back at LACR in Feb.

After 31 years, I am sure it felt good to be back.
When do the mods start?
BTW, Don't feel pregnant, I was out for 30+ myself..........
