Re: “Live” from our Bread basket tour!!
 

Adjustment on its going to be fast, change that to it could have been fast.

Test and tune by the the track was a sad farce. Track prep was mostly moping up oil and water. Good traction for my car was almost non-existent. Never saw any Rosin or PJ1, it was only $80 each for a hose job. Speaking of hose jobs, it was only a $5 charge to use a credit to enter the race. The biggest sound of test and tune was ''Silence'', cars did not go down the track in an orderly fashion. It was a bad day due to the track being ill prepared, it seems the regular track personal quit and did not show up for work. That left office personal running the staging lanes. You get the picture although my words do not do it justice, it was really frustrating. I would be surprised if any received value for the moneys spent.

I hope the D3 crew can fix the track for the race.

Re: “Live” from our Bread basket tour!!
 

I agree with Larry’s post...waited 2 hours for one Test and tune hit and because the track sucked I almost stuck my new car in the wall. All for the low price of $80 cash.

Re: “Live” from our Bread basket tour!!
 

75% of all test and tunes are a rip off. They should be renamed test and screw the racer. Mo money for the track operator.

Re: “Live” from our Bread basket tour!!
 

The Test and Tune in most of all the tracks I have been to in The West have been a waste of Money No track Prep at all so I just do not do the test and tune Day anymore just sit back and enjoy the Day with racing Friends

Re: “Live” from our Bread basket tour!!
 

Well we are ready to go this morning! Hopefully the track is too! Super street are the first gueinie pigs out ! I hope everyone hooks!! The air is showing -89’ right now!!

Twice now I was watching Gateway (no sound) and it switched (untouched by human hands) to the Hot Rod Reunion in Bakersfield. Looks like they have some wires crossed on the access.

Oh well

Re: “Live” from our Bread basket tour!!
 

We are on a rain delay! Super street, stock, super gas and part of super stock ran before it started. It is light now but looks to be heavier this afternoon. It is really cold too!

81 stockers went down and it is not mineshaft ! There are a few here trying to lower their averages. Only about 30 cars went .85 under or better.

A lot of people test here at Tulsa Raceway Park. I have never been there when tracknprep was bad, or things did not go well. Always money well spent for me.

Re: “Live” from our Bread basket tour!!
 

All three of our cars SPUN in stock.....I came pretty close to hitting wall.

Our cars do not often spin the tire... ....Particularly with 150lbs in trunk for E/SA!

Re: “Live” from our Bread basket tour!!
 

At least the Xmas tree was safe this time....LOL! Sorry I couldn’t resist John...This comes as NO surprise when attempting to race at 40 and 50 degree track temps ....D 3 may want to evaluate this race so late in the year.....

Re: “Live” from our Bread basket tour!!

We made it home safe only to find our refrigerator freezer died. And we thought we bought quality Taiwanese product. Do we, USA , make anything that doesn't have China "Crap" in it?

Look at the bright side our dogs will love us even more when they recieve the thawed treasures from the "ice box"

We are done for the year, congrats to all the winners and champs
