Most everyone just went home - no good runs.

Doesnt look any worse than my track on any given street nite?? Did you "prepare" those tires at all other than the "dry hop" you speak of?? You really didnt spin that bad concidering the 4.56 gear?? What was your tirepressure?? A little spin to keep the RPM's up isnt to bad.. IMO only giving the track 1 pass is like going to the amusement park & only riding the carousel once.. Seriously, ive been to a really "BAD" track nite.. By nites end ive got the tirepressure, suspension, struts, shocks dialed in to the point where it almost doesnt matter.. The 10.5 PSI & softest setting with struts can in itself cure alot & only lose about a tenth max at that adjustment.
