I was painting my hood . . . lol.

I also had a bunch of other stuff to get done, like wiring up my delay box so I can switch to Super Pro. I had too much to do to race two weekends in a row, and I make my Super Pro debut on Saturday.

I'll be there for the next one . . with mufflers this time . . lol

Yeah, I like afsc, too. I'm looking forward to getting the car dialed in to the point I can drop the whole 300 shot on it and maybe give some of the big boys a run.

FJO sent me a new controller and it dry tested perfect. I'll probably make my first "real" nitrous pass at Speedworld on Saturday. But, I'm only going to use the 100 shot pills. It'll be interesting to see what it runs. I'm hoping for bottom 9s to high 8s. :yes:

I'm going to try to have someone on the camera.

Happy anniversary. Tomorrow is our 16th.
