Winters work done...

Picked up my car today and hauled it home. I put in a new TH400 with a trans brake this winter then hauled it to the shop in Calgary for a squash fuel system. Going to do some data logging this week and be ready for racing when our track opens next weekend.

Yes, made 9 passes on the weekend. The car ran great, driver error was a little severe. It was the first time using the trans brake and having to shift manually. Most of my trouble was reacting and shifting at the right rpm off of the shift light, was getting better through the weekend but generally wasn't good at all. Launching off the trans brake is a friggin blast and I played with different launch controller rpm's. Track was a little green but not terrible. Made one 1.50 60' but was at 1.56-7 on all other passes. Managed a best ET of 10.27 @ 136 mph but need seat time to get consistent, correct shifting and find optimal launch rpm. With the Squash system fuel pressure was good so now hopefully we can put a little more timing into it as well.

Thanks Micheal at Davenport for an nice clean install on the Squash system....
