Lou, it was all over the place at Kearney, but that was the first time out in almost a year with the car and a different setup than I have been running before. It was picking up every run after I got new gas and made some minor adjustments. Went from a 16:50 to a 15:63 on the brakes against Seymour.
I think I went a little too big on jets. It seems to run better dead cold than after it warms up. Going up 6&4 was a major jump, but I was afraid it was going to eat a piston if I left it alone.
I've got Bill's Swinger home now to finish putting his old motor back in. Should finish that up this week and then the Piggie will come back. Hopefully I can get out in another couple weeks and try again. Joliet has a couple make-up races end of September I want to play in too.
It's felt really good to be back in the car, kinda like the old fire is returning. It really helps having a place to keep the car and trailer at home too.
Patrick has been in night school working on his Masters in Engineering. He should be done soon and then we can get serious on the Daytona again.
