I took the Dart out Saturday night, this time to I-57 in W. Frankfort IL instead of Sikeston MO. My hats off to the track crew, it was in great shape, no traction issues at all. After my last outing I was pretty disgusted. As some of you recommended I changed my shock settings to 5 from 9 and left the air in the MT ET Streets at 17#.

The first pass off the trailer it went 6.694 with a 1.436 60' the air temp was just a touch over 90*. I made one pass in the left lane, the rest were in the right lane. The laft lane pass was a 1.424, in the right lane it went 1.414, 1.416,1.413,1.412 and 1.410 on a red light with a 6.628.

Over all I was pleased with the car, the driver on the other hand needs some work .


THanks Guys .

Congrats!! I-57 is the track where I run my race series at and I honestly in the 7 years of the series had anyone complain about the track not hooking. They do a great job with it. If you wanna really test it bring it up again this Friday to our heads up race. You can test and tune all night and the track will have some TEETH

Hey Ken. Hows it going? The mph was over 105, normally its 102. Looking at my schedule I have to work those weekends so I'll miss the big races. Too bad, you could come down and .
It will be insane in the pits at the $10,000 to win Super Pro race on the 9th.
