Good to see some of you guys up there. The RWD ran like **** obviously, mid 13s at 130 mph. The new cams are giving me a hell of a time... I'm going to try to make the track rental on Wednesday so I can get in enough runs to get some tuning done.

Guilty. At least it's consistent. 
The car was losing electrical power randomly. It shut off right at about 9500 rpm in second gear during the burnout. That was interesting. They pushed me back when it wouldn't restart (losing power once it started cranking). I asked Richie to give me a few minutes to try it again before getting towed out of there. It fired back up, he let me back in, and it survived the pass. On the return road though it died again, LMAO. Worst part is I lost the log, WTF. I believe the problem is the 200 amp breaker I have on the battery, I'm not sure it likes the 16v battery, or perhaps it's been bad all along, since with an alternator I never would have noticed a problem (don't run one now).

There was a Silver VIII (I think!) there running mid-12's @ around 114. Car looks good!
There was another Evo with a lot of body work done to it. Ran a high 13 @ 99??? Anyone?

The car with the body work was grey correct? I think it also had a huge intercooler, car didn't run very well.

To each their own though. I didn't see your car at all though? I was parked by Jewer's trailer. Murdered out IX

Yes...I didn't realize the phone settings were on their lowest. If I take any this weekend, they should come out a little better. At least the sound is good though!
