Did you have any problems at Indy last weekend? I had no issues in the car I was driving there and none of the other cars in our camp had traction issues. Mostly I race in D2 and have not had any problems this year in my car.

Why do some cars hook in a car wash and others dig a hole at the same race? Must be the track.

To much low gear in the transmission? Happens a lot.

NOT ALL TRACKS!!

Hats off to the Koretsky's, Maple Grove and NHRA crew. Track was prepped beautifully even for the test & tune on Thursday!

Don, you complain about every track you go to. Ever think it's your car?

Ralph A Powell · 08-09-2023, 07:55 PM

When the last time you had you shocks recalibrated? The ride in the trailers is very hard on them!

Wasn't there a shortage of traction compound a couple of years ago then didn't the price skyrocket?
