What a way to start the season!...and after the holidays, I was ready for some racing! I doubt they will get it all in today. Now it sounds like they might be getting things dry enough to continue.

Did you guys see Kurt Johnson's car "HOP" down the track? Like a bucking bronco! He was complaining later that the track was only 57 degrees and it was unsafe to run just to put a show on for the fans.
And Tony Pedregon pulling a wheelstand about 100 foot out! What a ride! Shame the weather didn't hold off.

Yep, it was a pretty crappy weekend....I spent $600 to stand in the rain for hours, had to leave because my kid was wet and freezing. So for my hard earned money I saw 6 passes and if I can hold on to the stubs until next year I'll get 1/2 price tickets....What a waste of money....I think from now on I'll save the cash and watch it on TV for free....Our race team page

I'm sure it's their fault! I think Bush causes tsunamis and tornados too.

Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
