He checked see how they predicted the weather like a week before.. he saw he was going to go too fast, so he slowed it down, then checked the weather a few days later, and it was going to be better then what they said before. so he did it again, then when he check it again like the day before he left, he had to slow it down again, because he knew he would easily go into the 11 then. But since hes a sportsman bracket racer, hes limited to 12.00
Oh, I see. Thanks for clarifying that.

Rebuilt Tranny

Well my rebuilt tranny is already slipping a gear, only a few thousand miles into it. Just rolled 98k on the odometer yesterday, going to take it back to the dealer next week and see what they say, maybe they can finally fix the rear wiper that they have fixed 4 times and still doesn't work too.

Yes, but there no money in heads up, unless you run an index class, and even then even then you get guys with electronics to slow there cars down. I like both. heads up is fun when you race a car that runs close to you. otherwise its no fun for me. Bracket racing makes every race fun, because every race is close.
