I found it interesting to compare TheRookie's 2007 SS AWD with WXO's 2008 RWD.
I think I might have a time slip on this SS. OK, after some hunting I found one.
Don't ask why I had it. The #10 is TheRookie's SS and #29 is GMJohn's Regal.
This slip is from November 3rd, 2007 @ TRP, it was 52 degrees and a 10 mph tailwind.
I'm not sure how much was done to the SS at this point, maybe BP can help.
It sure shows the potential of WXO's 2008 SS, the 1/8th et & mph are not far apart.

It's amazing that you would have one of the Rookie's timeslips. There is room for improvement on Smoke's timeslips. I'd like to start with a 52 degree day.

There is a good chance that it could be 50 degrees and dry on Saturday the 8th of October
when TRP has a Test-n-Tune 10am to 5pm. Hmmm!
(maybe we might be able to slip away from Mostmint's 25 hour event for a little while)

Race starts at 10 AM Sat. Maybe want to watch the first hour then head over to the dragstrip? Whatever you guts do is fine with me however we are racing a crap can so if you don't get there til 2 PM maybe we already had a problem.

Sunday the 9th is Randi's 60th birthday. To extent possible, I would like to focus on her that day since she was so gracious as to agree to this trip.

We'll have to come up with something special for Randi on Sunday.
Also Dragway 42 has Test-n-Tune on Friday the 7th of October from 6pm to 10pm. Grins

EDIT: I just noticed that this is the Rookie's thread. I'm going to move this update to my '08 TBSS thread.
