Rock Falls June 4th?
Is anyone gonna be going on this day? I'd prefer going on a Fun Day, but this is the next one and I just wanna get a clue on how my car will run so I can see the progress over summer. I will be going on this day and my friend might go also. I wont be expecting my car to run as quick as last year, because of the tranny, but hopefully a 14.0 atleast.

Re: Rock Falls June 4th?
I might be able to go then, I'd like to get new tires put on the front so I don't spin the entire way down. I work at 10pm that night so I might wait til the next time.

Re: Rock Falls June 4th?
After testing my car a little, I'm starting to think my car shouldn't be at the track yet. Still having third gear problems and thats causing me to have to shift very slow and that's gonna end up with a slower e.t. So I might wait a while before I go...

Yeah it was... My buddy was racing his car (stock supercharged Bonniville) just to see what he could do and he got 8 runs in and we didnt get there until 10am. I was going to run but my car made it 15miles out of town then the WG put a hole in the radiator.

Re: Rock Falls June 4th?
June 19th is the next Fun Day. If the silver car isn't ready to go for that, I will probably take the bike over. I am guessing Nash's car will be done by then too.

Re: Rock Falls June 4th?
I'm going with some friends (they have assorted rice mobiles), and I won't be running my car (because I cant tune the f***er since my logger is f***ed up).

Re: Rock Falls June 4th?
they sell race gas for $5 a gallon at the track, but I forgot if its 110 or 116 octane, you can get 110 for $3.50 a gallon at the short stop in No. St. paul and bring it too the track in a tank...

Re: Rock Falls June 4th?
I will be there on race gas. Mainly just to see what i can trap at, but i might try to launch it a few times since we are towing it there. If i break it won't be that devistating.

They sell or at least used to sell Phillips B32 at RF. I think they call it 110, which is it's pump (R+M)/2 octane rating and Kath called it 114(it's research octane), when they used to sell it. But it's motor octane is 106, which is the important one. C16's motor octane is 117. Most "110"s you find around will have a motor octane in the 105-106 range.

Good luck to all that run, we'll post results (ryan's galant and randy's accord are running).

Re: Rock Falls June 4th?
Guess they ran today with a few rain delays. Must've busted out their lawnmower looking track dryers.
