I Drove It!

Tom Cole:
I drove the car last night at the track!  That's the first time.  I had to check the spark plugs for jetting and the kid was with his girlfriend so I went to Friday test and tune by myself.

As a set-up guy, it really helps me to feel what is going on, although I don't reach the speeds, or the G's that the kid does.  One thing I noticed was how the car changes as it goes through the turn.  It was interesting to feel and I think I can get the setup better now that I've felt it.

Yee Hah!!!
Way to go Tom!!!


 So, how were those plugs?

 ;) :D ;D ;D ;D

Just ever so slightly on the rich side.  It was to be a 30 lap race and I was thinking that going a touch rich would help keep the temps a little cooler.

But, we got rained out so it has been postponed til next weekend

 One of my earliest lessons came from a friend I pit crewed for. Tossed me his helmet and said take it for a spin. Gave me a whole different perspective on things. Also got me started in racing.

Tom, if we had known you would be behind the wheel last Friday, we would have brought the whole family out just to watch!  ;)  It's FUN, ain't it now?  ;D
