Okay.... I had to do some business while I was out this weekend.. But the
racing was ahhhh.... Let me find a way to put this... How bout Awesome....
The Camaro ran like a top and was just a tick better then I thought.. I
didn't want to say that I really wanted it to run 165 on a 151 record....
but that was my goal... well I don't have the exact time slip as the
printer broke.... BUT
I ran a 166 and some change .... the car worked flawlessly Motor wise and I
gained a ton of info on suspension tuning.... The Car's tune up was perfect
all the way around... maybe a tick fat and two degrees to much timing....
on the big end.. but it worked like stink... and came home once again
Complete... Well less two header bolts....
I am sure the other guys could expound on how happy I was to have it
running that well... but I really did have the time of my life.... Wow what
a rush..
