You had a good launch…and then you seemed to trail… The EVO runs 12.5 at 110 mph at the moment. I have to get a bigger front mount intercooler… My EVO doesn’t have many mods, just turbo back exhaust, air cone filter, and an ECU flash. ---

Yeah, I launched OK. But as soon as I granny shifted 1-2 you were gone! The whole combo just isn’t working. The tranny has been a dismal failure since the install of the loaner 383. Just won’t shift. I have 3.90s in the rear. Worked great with the old A-833 OD, which had a 3.00-1 first. That close ratio @#$box has a 2.43 first. The stroker doesn’t wake up till 3000RPM. So between the mismatch of parts and the trans, I’m surprised I even had a decent race or two. But…it was a nice day and I think everyone raced well and safe. So I’d say it was good. ---

I had shit to do for most of the day got there at 5:08 and the lady said I couldn’t race that 5 was the cutoff…She said “The Big Dogs are Out there” so I figured I’d stay and watch, which pissed me off more when I saw some of the “Big Dogs” hmmmm… since when are Cavaliers, Cobalts, an Olds Alero, and a few others I forget right now “Big Dogs”? Oct 6th is the next one correct according to the lady? I’ll be there early for this one. Matt ---

I just can’t wait for Oct 6th so I can get there early and be able to race I should do good in the GSX… Of course the 2nd gear grind may be a problem. Tranny is stock 109,000 needs Shep to get ahold of it. Clutch and fluid are of course new in it. I should do pretty decent with my setup That is why I was kinda pissed car is setup for 1/8th a mile. With my mods I should have done very well…Not Big Dog well but enough to make me happy. Matt ---
