Well since the southern nationals were postponed this weekend and will be made up next weekend.. that assures that the may 10th test n tune on friday night will be cancelled. According to my weather app on my phone... next weekend has a good chance of rain as well. So basically im making a thread for whoever wants to go to test n tune the wekeend after the southern nats finally gets ran.

So with a TBD date who all is still interested?

I just bought a new Snell 2010 approved helmet at Summit Racing in McDonough.
Have 4 motorcycle helmets at home but didn't want to be turned away at the track, plus I will need it for the Georgia half mile in September

I wanted to buy a helmet from Summit. Tried to order one from them last night as I don't get to the southside of the Atlanta much. The Impact 1320 in flat black in my size wouldn't pull up on there website, so I called the customer service number. Explained to the rep what I wanted, he gave me a part number, but it was for gloss black. I gave up and ordered one from Jeg's. Should ship on the 23rd.

Weather report forecasts rain around midnight so I'm taking the Camaro to work and headed up to Atlanta Dragway tonight.

How was it?

I have new respect for those of you who can properly modulate the "go pedal" and get off the line!
Weather cooperated, good turn-out of participants, and lots of helpful talk while waiting in the lanes.
So, my first 1/4 mile run ever was the quickest at 13.532 at 102.48. I zoned out at the tree!! Too much thinking as I watched the lights, watched the guy next to me leave the line, realized I had a green light, and left the line. 1.325 reaction time, 2.268 60'.
Ran 3 more times and totally smoked the tires leaving the line each time, 14.249 at 108.51 and 14.217 108.91. 60's were 2.850 and 2.848.
Last run of the night had a Mustang beside me, he hooked up and left me at the line as I spun in place. Eased off the gas to gain traction and I was rolling! Quick shift into second and I was gaining ground on him. Unfortunately I was so excited that I was closing in on him I hit the rev limiter at the top of second...

Note to self for next time - Bill, run your own race
Can't wait for next time!!
