Good morning Steve and the SoCal crew, Friday is upon us! Luckily, all of the snow missed us to the south. Fine with me, I've had enough for one winter.

Lost to a Chevy Luv with a V8 twice and a Jaguar with a turbocharged 350 Chevy once.

Beat a 2wd Duramax

Pushing the lights a little too much...I went Red by a couple of hundredths on 3 of my 4 runs.

He was .1 second faster, but I got him off the line...still a good way to end the evening.

Ran a little bit slower than last week...maybe because the track was colder, I don't know...air temp was about the same, but the sun wasn't shining on the track all day. 9.018, 9.023, 9.042, 9.049.

It's barely moisture in the air. It wants to get started though.
