Test and Tune next Saturday at PRP. Anyone else interested in running? Should be good air now

I'm going to bring the Sky if my drag radials arrive in time. Hope to break into the 12's!

CONGRATS Dave....nice job.

Amazing that dirty engine runs so well.

Just think if you got down to 190lbs you could break into the 10.40's


All kidding aside, great job. I'll have to check out that drag race track...as I will be living in Virginia during the week and commuting back to the burgh for awhile. Looks like a nice track...

Thanks Jim. Imagine if I weighted 130lbs like Curt. I'd be in the 9's.

If you get a chance to run at MIR, enjoy. They have zamboni-like machines that shoot flames onto the pavement to warm the track at night. If a car wrecks at 170mph at the end of the track, racing resumes 15 mins later. It's gonna be depressing going back to PRP.

I saw a pretty nice black IX up at PRP Saturday. Was it anyone from here?

I was driving my Saturn Sky.

I live in Moon & see the blue X all the time. I believe that the owner possibly works at Firestone as I see it parked there a lot. I also see a silver IX as well. I see the silver IX by Montour country club on my way home from work mostly.
