Hey Tony, looks like my six does about the same as yours does. I checked out the 1/4 mile timer, 1/4 mph and 0-60 timer built into my instrument panel the other day - 18.2 sec @ 73mph, 0-60 = 12sec. I felt the power start to drop off on my 1-2 and 2-3 shifts, so I imagine I waited too long to shift. Maybe if I get the shift points right, I can knock off about a second _________________ 92 Camaro

They run pretty late, like midnight, unless your car is really noisy, then you can only run until 10pm.
You do know, we are talking or Portland International, not the PIR in Seattle. |

Now that I have the battery hold down fixed, maybe I'll see what the 89 can do with its tired 305. Just need to make sleeping arrangements if necessary Maybe I can find something at the swap meet too. |

I am sure that between all of the portland folks, we can find places for people to sleep. Well, if a whole bunch of people are coming, I may see if I can sneak the cracked windshield thru tech. |

Maybe just Saturday for me, I'm not up for fighting I-5 on a Friday afternoon, and I still have to work on Friday. I may bring the nephew down, fresh from his first West-Pac on USS Abe Lincoln. |

Where is the swap meet on Saturday, if not at the raceway? I'll need to find it if it's somewhere else. |

Brandon said he wont know if he's going until friday night. Al if you want, we/i could meet you somewhere depending on when you get in. You're welcome to stay at my place saturday after racing too if you'd like.
Same for you Brandon, or anyone else that comes. |

Thanks, I plan on leaving Saturday morning, so a meeting somewhere would be great. I think I still have your phone number from the last time. BTW I may have my nephew with me if his command lets him go for the weekend. |
