Sat Night Grudge 10/29 - Anyone racing?

Last one of the season. I was thinking about coming out to watch. Anyone racing that I can live vicariously through?

Sadly I did not make the list this year. First time in 8+ years I haven't raced in a season. I'll just have to do double time in 2012 to make up for it.

Tim, I don't see a # for you up there either in the 3rd gen.

Re: Sat Night Grudge 10/29 - Anyone racing?

We're installing a vacuum pump on the engine and waiting for a crank/mandrel bolt w/ cog wheel on it, so we won't be racing.

Re: Sat Night Grudge 10/29 - Anyone racing?

That's a good idea Marc. I know thier are a couple reason's why you do that. But one main is it helps keep the pistons rings sealed so you wont have any compression loss. which all equates to a few more horsepower

Re: Sat Night Grudge 10/29 - Anyone racing?

I'll prob be out there in the 6 o'clock hour.
Hopefully there's a lot of cars out tonight, but I'm sure there's a lot of Halloween parties etc. taking precedence.

Re: Sat Night Grudge 10/29 - Anyone racing?

Tim, Del and I watched racing for a couple of hours. BS'd and saw the same cars runs over and over...The track was a little dead but not too bad. It was a good time and cheap 5 dollar entertainment is always nice. Hopefully my car will be ready for a run this november before the track closes for a couple months.

Re: Sat Night Grudge 10/29 - Anyone racing?

I was going to say this has already passed...but yeah I might make it out to a wednesday but not too likely, if I do it'll probably be the wednesday night before thanksgiving. That's noramlly a good day to leave work early.
