Don't even think rain. It is supposed to be windy tomorrow to dry up the rain and then sunny on Weds. At least I hope that is how it is going down.

Maybe the rain will help cool your plenums, therefore maximizing the full potential of your Zwanzig charger and it will also increase the volumetric efficency of your FUSE removal thereby decreasing your E.T.

As you might know Zwanzig means 20 in German. That is the amount of car length distance you will be behind me if you show up. I always enjoy looking at your cute reproduction, so I hope you can make it.

Does anyone know the Aztec Sun Dance?

If it rains, Walt, guys with treaded tires will win. Those with slicks will lose. Woohoo !!!

They say they your unit looks like a reproduction???

Well I have treads on my tires, but they won't let us run if their is any moisture left. Maybe Alvin can blow some hot air down the strip for us.

We'll see there dawg, mind if i call you dog.

I have increased my aerodynamics, I waxed the car with 2 coats of a synthetic polymer dual ply wax, and my rear camber was brought back to 0 a few degrees so well see. Oh and I did a weight reduction mod so i think i will definitly trap hi or run low.

A camber change can make a big difference, but I think the wax will do it for you.
