Tearin up VIRginia International Raceway

How I spent my weekend !!!

The latest improvements really healed the "roll" and the
"braking nose dive" ...

Sal, the "Road Course" tune worked marvelously !!!
I ran with the 4 lb'er all weekend ... 40 and 50 minute sessions ...

Here's a sample ...

Well, it's the first big track time after the 1200 lb'ers
and the panhard ... It was amazing, Rapid Robert,
I almost kept up with a bunch of REALLY fast stangers ...

I did run with the '03 Cobras and showed them some
taillights ... HEH HEH HEH ... As one guy behind me
said after a session, "I was back there saying 'I wonder
when he's gonna brake, 'I wonder when he's gonna brake,
DAAYUM, he better brake soon ..."

Went through HPS Hawks on Saturday and moved to the spares
on Sunday morning ... I love those pads ...

You coming to SVTOA at IRP this year?

I'll be there. The HD won't see the road course however I might just have a mule/track car by then.

03 Cobras in the rear view is a wonderful thing. Way to represent the 1%-ers.
