Got the car out last wednesday night

TOSTO RACING · 05-11-2011, 06:16 PM

Got my car out finally after two years . Made an attempt at Indy open to set the C/S record ,but just couldn't get the car down the track it was blowing the tires off, so didn't know if it was the car or the track So headed out to KCIR last wednesday night (sucks no track in STL anymore have to drive 3 hours to test lol) and needless to say it was the track. Didn't change a thing and the car went 1.39 60 foot so I'm pretty excited for just having 7 passes on the new combo. The DA was 1568 I can't wait to start actually fine tuning everything in and have some fun this year!

Here is a video from my buddies phone I thought I'd share.

Glad to see you got it all together! Nothing more fun that dumping the clutch!

Good to hear you got the car out. Hope your father is doing well.
Yeah, somebody needs to get Gateway opened...and soon!!!

The car did look good on Wednesday. Glad to see it back out. KCIR is the place to get some really good times and it always hooks.

That track is awesome no doubt about it, it always hooks!

Great Job, keep after it and you'll see the et's keep dropping!

So that is what those pictues looked like you sent. Nice job. Like Wade said keep wrenching on it and the ET will come your way. I may have to fly out to help in teardown.

Maybe some of the other tracks should get a hold of somebody at KCIR? they can make the track hook even when the temp. is in the 40`s. Wednesday is test night not a race day. Tom
