Well, didn't go as well as I wanted. Did 6 runs, adjusted pressures on the MT 17" DRs, adjusted launch rpms, etc on every run and couldn't hook at all. Track seemed to hook well for most others, and didn't hear any other complaints of track condition.
Being 104 degrees today didn't help. Not to mention the tech guys were hitting people hard on the 11.49/roll bar rules. I got told during tech to don't even bother below a 11.5, so I was letting out just to work on dialing a launch in. Ended up with a 11.1 by accident on the last one, got warned if they saw it again i'd be banned for a year. This 11.49 stuff stinks now for newer cars...hardly anyone was there, and I wish I had a $ for every brake light I saw light up just before the traps. Who wants to pay to watch a race people let up on all the time? I wouldn't have stayed if I wasn't so wanting to get a launch dialed in. (which didn't happen anyways) With SoCal having so much illegal racing going on, you'd figure they'd lax a few things.
Just wasn't a great day. Wished for some good times with those new gears.
