Im gonna try and make it down with my 95 gt I just picked up...if not that then in the fox

[Dtony]

I was going to go but it's just too cold for the car to hook. I am going to go tomorrow. They said noon to 5 Sunday also.

[redfirepearlgt]

Think I will save asking wifey for a warmer day. BRRRR!!!!!!!!!!

Too cold for the car to hook?

[Dtony]

Too cold for the car to hook?

Yes, referring to the track temps. I have never had any luck getting traction in 45º air.

[Goober]

-168 DA today. Should make for some great times for those who can catch traction

[Mista Bone]

dirty starting line, new concrete, low temps.

Wait till the end of the month :)

[adragon72]

Man it was nice to get out to the track today!! There was a coupe there that didn't seem to have traction issues.

[Dtony]

I was wrong. I couldnt stand it so I made the drive. I got my best 60' ever in the 5.0. I ran a best of 9.94 with a 1.43 60'.

Congrats! That's awesome.

[9cobra4]

Damn having to work today.

[coleary1992]

I made it out in the 95. For being all stock and auto I was happy with it. I fidnt recognize anyobe so I didnt stay long. Might bring the fox out tomorrow and see how she likes the new gears.

[Dtony]

Congrats! That's awesome.

Thanks, I was as shocked as anyone. I was on my conservative street tune and pump gas. I had just picked up some 102 race gas this morning and didnt want to waste it because I was sure the track would be bad. I wish I had put it in and leaned on it.

Also, got in trouble again for no certified cage.

[331lx]

So how's the new track feel goin down it

[Dtony]

So how's the new track feel goin down it

SCARY!! The new section is real loose. Lane one was horrible, The car would 60' then break the tires loose once it hit the new concrete.

Lane 2 was a lot better. I am sure once more cars go down it will be good.

Is there a bump where the new concrete starts or was the track just loose from no rubber?

[Dtony]

No bump, it's very smooth. I think the issue was no rubber down yet.

[m347]

Glad there is no bump. Never know how replacing a section of track will turn out.
