FTD Finally

Post by nomadtrash »

Bucephalus and I are getting faster. The autocross site was much smoother this time than the last four events. This site is also concrete instead of asphalt. The temperature was between 95 and 99 degrees all day which is a little warmer than the previous four autocrosses this year. I am also getting more used to the new motor and handling that Bucephalus has. All of the variables helped me to get fast time of day today. Actually, there were a couple of F500 formula cars and a B-Mod sports racer that were quicker. I was the fastest of all the full bodied production cars. This is the first time that I have beaten all other cars. My goals are now set on competing with the F-Modified F500 cars. They are snow mobile powered open wheel formula cars. Locally we have a multi-time national champion Gary Kramer. I have a few tricks up my sleeve that I will use to catch Gary. I plan on forced induction, water injection, and Wilwood Brakes. I will be racing in Pearsall, TX on June 10-12 at the AVON tire prooving grounds. This site is South of San Antonio.

I'll let you know how it turns out.

Congrats to you and Bucephalus, sounds like your new marriage is working out. Send out a reminder about Pearsall, maybe a few of would drive down to watch the roadster win!
