Day 1 was pretty intense. The surface at TWS is super sketchy and almost every driver complained about how bumpy and dangerous the surface was. Kinda figured that would happen.

The Evo that KevinD tuned had a catostrophic failure during his first full speed pass. Josh was keeping the rev's high on the bank in anticipation of the start and it starved the pickup of oil. We hadn't really anticipated this problem since the car has been street raced the car for years with no issues. But the steep bank, slow speeds, and high revs is not a good combo.




I'll post up some more stuff after dinner.
