Hey guys, just wanted to make sure everyone here got this info. I've been to this in the past and we always get a ton of runs in. So weather your out just to have fun or need a good amount of track time to dial in your car, this is the track event to go to.

The Hollywood Knights car club rents the track for the day & usually run it their way. It's a good time.

Im looking forward to this. A great day to test and tune, Id like to play around with the timing on my car and try some different shift points and such.

If you got ur shit together, you should be able to make a bunch of passes if you wanted to.

it wasn't pretty, i found out how bad my clutch was today!!! lol

after the first burn out i had no clutch left, i ran a 12.7@115mph and never left 3 gear! lol

After i realized that it was slipping that bad i just let off, didn't wanna destroy my flywheel. I'm gonna have to order a new disk this week so i can get that thing ready for super nats.

damn dude thats harsh, def get that ready for the super nats. The track rental didnt go that well for me either i was having some problems of my own. The last couple passes I made my car was getting pretty loose towards the top of the track, i think it was mostly due to the track getting oiled down by the Hollywood knights like 100 times cuz normally I dont have any traction problems.

Then I lost a couple hood pins. Plus this was bizarre, I had to rotate the slicks towards the end of the day, and I managed to snap a wheel stud off, so yeah, I should be able to get that fixed by the nats but we will see cuz I have to take the car home to pull the whole axel out. idk
