Live from the Gator Nationals
Well here we go its time for the BIG SHOW and what a show its going to be. The Pros where testing all day yesterday and if that's what you wanted to watch you had a full day of non stop runs. I got the maintenance done to the race car ran the valves and changed oil. I did find a valve spring with low seat pressure and changed that. Hopefully that will take care of the high gear skip I've been having. The schedule for us is 3 time runs today with the normal rotation ST, S/C,SS, & S/G starting at 8AM. Its going to be a long day I just hope my time runs go a well as they did in testing before the Baby Gators.

Re: Live from the Gator Nationals
What a difference a couple days make. As good as our 9.90 testing went Wednesday lets just say yesterday was a bit of a challenge. I'm hoping todays conditions will be a better suited for my square car. The schedule for today starts at 8AM with the normal rotation for us with the pros making there qualifying runs.

Re: Live from the Gator Nationals
Well 1st round didn't go as hoped. In testing Wednesday I couldn't of asked for a better out come. I started out with a 011 light 9.924, second run was a 023 light 9.904 and then we made a big change to get a ratio and went 9.84. Fast forward to yesterday with the same numbers I went 9.90 I go 10.07 WHAT...? I made a pretty big change and it goes 10.04 . OH NO ! So with my years of experience I turn the stop off and I knew it would be way fast and it was 9.700. NOW WHAT ? So this morning the wind that I blamed for my slow runs had finally pretty much stopped, so I just put the same numbers that I ran the 9.84 with in it. I pull up in the lane and end up next to Jim Taylor JUST WHAT I NEED. ...The end result was Jim tattooed me on the tree .006 I'm 0.40 and run a 9.931 not too bad but he's 9.929 for the win. So here I am spectating at the Gator Nationals and I'm ok with it. Photos coming soon.
