    Sunday qualifying I started on fresh Hankooks which were a bit greasy but by the end of the session I was back in the 1:50 times. Sunday race was a blast. Ended up chasing racer bill till his unfortunate engine problem and trading places with an IT7 car most of the race. Made it down to the 1:49's and ended up finishing third overall.

    I have some body work to do after an incident into 7 where I ate the rear end of a IT7 into my passenger door but aside from the door the car seems OK. I will need to check the alignment to make sure.

    Overall great weekend. Good size fields and lots of fun racing. If I can find another half second I can start taking it to Linn in his Sentra.
    Ahhh you experienced the fuel pickup issue. Should have told you not to run under like a half tank..ever. Pack her full of fuel and you wont have an issue! :026:

    Actually has prompted me into researching fuel support systems. Looking into a surge tank or a big fuel filter described in another post from 2010.
