2011 NASA Nationals

The track is like Hallett plus a little bit of straightaway here & there. Definitely a track where the driver can make or break the effort though, that's for sure IMHO its worth going just to get to drive there....

If you can figure out a way to make a little more power...move up to CMC2.

That's the easy part... pull the plate and put gas in it.

Now that smooth, consistent, on-track thing you mentioned...

So far this year we've had a 3rd gen carb Firebird on 16's win, a 4th gen LT1 on 17's, and two different S197 Mustangs win at Mid-Ohio. And...they all four threw away wins by spinning off! If you can change plates and make the power...no excuses not to run CMC2.

Keeping it on the track is more important than all the crazy CMC2 rules allow. No need for 17's/275's, no need for 4 piston $2,500 brake packages, and no need for Steeda/Saleen wings. At least 1/2 the cars there will be CMC1 cars that just bumped up the power to CMC2 levels.

I'm planning on going to Nationals with Dan Allford. This is a bit in question now since he blew 194 hp on the dyno yesterday. If we can figure out what is wrong and fix it, we will be headed out that Monday to get there in time for the Wednesday test day.

Check the knock sensor on the block. I had the connector go bad and the car dynoed really low. Another thing that made me dyno low once was a bad fuel pressure regulator.

I think Dan can do well...he needs to get it fixed.

+1; I think he can do very well.

I'm going to shoot for getting the car on the ground this weekend and maybe do some doughnuts in a parking lot.

Running out of time... must be Casey's fault.

hey those of you that are going - got room in your rig for some tires? One of my TTers needs help:

Thanks!

I want to throw in with some Texas guys who are going.
Maybe stay thru the following weekend to take in the GrandAm race.
Let me know via sms/call (469.831.8693) as I get the impression that the PM function (AMONG OTHERS) here is FUBAR.
Yup. Finally unemployed.

Out.

Done.

Fine.

Must have not gotten the clutch fork on the bearing right. Tired of messing with it.

See everybody at ECR.

[kbrewmr2]

so who from the DFW area (or is passing through there) is going???!?

Still looking for a ride for a set of tires... thanks!
