Test N Tune

(1/1)

lake_harley:
Heading to the drag strip for our second test and tune event of the year. We raced the car about 10 times last year but tonight is the first night I'm going to try making a pass. It's probably been 50 years since I made a pass down an 1/8 Mile track so if you see this in time let's get those prayers out there for a safe and enjoyable pass.

OK....check the box marked "Drive a FED". My car has run a best time of 6.62 in the past but I made less than a 10/10 pass and let off a bit early a ran a 7.33. I was really happy it was even that quick. To me, the car comes off the line a lot harder and quicker than it ever looked like it does.

I look forward to making some more passes in the future. It was quite a rush for this 71 year old and makes me appreciate what the regular driver does with the car!

Nice going the idea is to have fun!as you get older it harder to do things on the list,when I was young like you I went to buy a sprintcar but couldn't fit in the cockpit I still want to try but might not be able to get it off the throttle stop never mind race it so do when you can
again nice going!!!!
