Dam 01 that sucks Wed test and tune at moroso is pretty slow. I usually get there around 5pm. Let the car cool and run 4-5 times then sit back and watch. I still will be going Wed April 3. There seems to be 4 Bullitts from here going allready. Love to see some more bullitts there.
Orlando Speedworld = Big Fun
Well not really. As some of you might notice, I usually have some kind of rant about this place. Last week at Funday Sunday (ironically it really isn't fun) I sat in line for over 5 hours for one 1/8 mile run. Tonight was equally as exciting.
I got a whole 1/4 mile run tonight! Woohoo! Just before I got my "one" run, someone oiled down the top end of the track. It was 9:15. They announced it would take about 20 minutes to clean up. If this were true, I could get back in the staging lanes before the 10pm cut-off. But as anyone who has been to Orlando knows, cleanup will take exactly how many ever minutes it is until the staging lanes close. In other words if it happens at 9:15, cleanup will take 45 minutes. If it happens at 9:45, it will take 15 minutes. Get the idea? Well, as you might guess they finished their cleanup at 10:02 and promply announce "the staging lanes are now closed".
On top of this, I get to look at two stock Civics sitting in the waterbox while the cleanup is going on. Orlando + FWD cars + water = stellar numbers for the people behind them :roll: And that was just the case.
I can report that I can still run 13.97 with a 2.26 short time. I sure am glad I heated the hell out of the Nittos for that. Orlando really is like a circus that caters to a bunch of clowns in rice.
