NMRA 2013

Looking good man!
Thanks, every thing seems to be coming together last minute. I'm hoping for a little testing tomorrow night at the track but will take dyno time instead if we can't make it over. I'll see how things at work go as the day progresses. We have a spot in the vendor midway make sure all of you guys from stangnet stop in to say hello.

Well, if it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have any... We had the car on the dyno last night just putting some finishing touches on the drivability tune up for the true street cruise and the radiator sprung a small leak, WTF. So I pulled it out, welded it and got it all back together and no more leak. We heat soaked the car to try and simulate that 3rd engine killing pass after the cruise and with only 20* of timing still easily made over 1200 rwhp and things were looking good. We were almost finished and running the car with load on it (18% on the pau) and the drivability is awesome, then the msd box crapped out. WTF I don't have a 7530 just laying around so I'll have to send this one back to msd. I have a few calls in to some friends to see if I can borrow/buy a box off of them today but if I can't get one I won't be taking my car to Georgia. I did have a friend of mine offer us to take his car down to Georgia so we will see what happens there. Either way I'm going just not sure about which car I'm taking, WTF...
 
Well I wont be making it with my car... stupid msd box...
I am still going to the race however. We still have a vendor booth and will be bringing a 69 Camaro with twin Vortech YSI's instead.
 
After all that work, you are gonna let an MSD box stop you... That sucks.
Yeah, I don't have much of a choice. I have a 7530 digital 7 box in the car and no one has a spare laying around. I can't justify the cost if a new when I'll get MSD to fix this one. It does really suck but I can say I will have it out for mir NMR no doubt.

sucks your not closer... pretty sure bob still has the old 7530 somewhere
 
I appreciate the support guys. If there were just a few more hours in the day I could probably make this work. I have my buddies camaro all loaded up and we are leaving in the next 2-3 hours. I'll be bbq ing and hanging out all weekend down at nmra. If any of you guys are going make sure to pop in the vendor midway and say high.
 
On the road still, about five more hours until we are there. This rain - wind storm is crazy. Couldn't see to drive over 20 mph on the highway. Sat in a traffic mess outside of dc but we are getting there, what and adventure, lmao
 
Just got done with my true street practice seasion. Pulled a 13.005 on my second run. 12.96 on my last. Looks like i might have a shot at a little prize money! Lol.
