^Yeah the traffic this morning was outta control. I think if we wouldve spent some money adding a lane or 2 to the exisiting highway instead of this stupid Big Dig mess we probally wouldn't have that much traffic.
i know, i'm dreading that 95N traffic. but that's ok, races dont start until 6 anyways. and once you get past the 95/128 split, it gets better.
yea, it's my first time... in an automatic
gotta go take out the spare tire and get some 100 octane

100 octane isn't going to do anything...the reason people use it is because it's less susceptible to detonation so you can advance the timing a lot higher, thus creating more power. if you're not tuned for 100, don't waste your money Originally Posted by rockd

^ just took out the spare, all my cleaning supplies, and all my tools... that was a good chunk of weight!
that was a great night... got 5 runs in! kinda disappointed with my times, though. my best was a 14.6 (was expecting 14.1 or 14.2). not bad for my first time, though... and my reaction times were pretty good (my best was .05s).
FYI, i was running 100 octane race fuel... no spare tire or stuff in the trunk... i weigh 195 lbs...tires were at 31psi... the car is an automatic...and the track was a bit cold, so the tires weren't sticking too well.

I couldn't make this one. Dude the traffic going up there looked retarded as I was going to the house from work. Maybe we can get a bunch of us G guys from around here to go one evening. Glad you guys had fun.
