Me and my dad had a good time, saw a lot of people and cars that we havent seen in a while. We ran the Q-32 and were number one after the frist quailfer. We slipped to the #2 spot after the second session. I switched the carbs over to max-jets and did not have ths A/F numbers on it right yet. Met alot of nice people in the class and talked to others we knew. Lost frist round, had a .023 light to his .010 and both of us ran .001 over. Still had a blast, Nowalk is the best.

It was good to see you guys over at Norwalk, it's hard to beat the father-son combo (at least when you are seeing eye to eye that is)

That's the PSO deal right? What does the car weigh, if I might ask. I am still trying to scratch enough money together to build one.
