atlanta dragway
straight line - whoop-dee-doo.
i know. but, i'm curious to see what the car can do after the dinan tune. this Saturday the 28th Atlanta Dragway is having their first test & tune of the season. if anyone's interested in joining me, ....you know what to do. it may be a rainy one, so it may not happen. and when the weather warms up, we should get it together for a group mountain run.

I would def be interested in this, I think ATL or Birmingham are the closest tracks to me. Please keep us updated on the next test and tune day.

let's keep an eye on it and hope for a group run.

what melts and runs during the day is freezing back over, i would think.

so, what about friday for a mountain run?
it looks like the rain is going to hit on saturday (though not by some sources). friday seems like the best bet - still a weekday, lows are 50 that morning, high of 73. and then, the dragway is having their first "fast friday" thing where the gates open at 6p for open testing. need to clear it with my work schedule, but i think i can talk the boss into coming with me if he has time to get new tires on his carrera (p-car for Foxy ;] ).

I work Fridays, Saturdays, some Sundays...occasionally I'm off Tuesdays though..lol. Plus I have an intake, downpipes, and then probably a muffler delete all on the way, y'all probably wouldn't want me and all my noise along.
Btw, I have to make a comment anytime anyone mentions Berry College, I'm an '85 grad! |

Perfect day, perfect weather Just something about a road full of ice & snow & Minijunkie's summer tires being like hockey pucks, kept us from going all the way up the Skyway. If you look at the end of the road maybe you'll see where the patch of white starts. The decision was made to turn around & I said...."good call". We only missed about 3 miles of the trek due to the ice. The rest of the ride was heavenly....and quite fast! The little car guys look really happy too. Mr. Schnell has a sharky grin!
