You should try the new MT ETRs. They hook really well.

Running MT Steet R radials.... 305/45/17

Hopefully everything goes as planned. Tire/Wheel choice, the tune that Nick did with ramped in boost for traction, Boost by gear, and a little luck I will do well. We shall see. All these things I learned from the 1/2 mile event I went to in Ocala. I am sure I will need to tweak a few things. I am not expecting some crazy result right out the box. But I will take it if I get it.

I am sticking with my plan.... Fingers crossed.

running same tire specs but on ETRs. Haven't had any traction issues. solid tires.

I got a good laugh today picking up some Mt. Dews.

Older gentleman said, "Let's go line them up at the bridge".
Me, Yeah, that thing is stupid.
Older gentleman, " It sounded good. I could tell it wasn't stock".
Me, It has 1004whp.
Older Gentleman, "What did you say"?
Me, I started laughing. "It has 1004hp at the wheel."

Too dang funny.

The wife and I are still laughing about that ^^^^^^^

Damnit, Rain chance just went up to 50% for Pocono. My event may get cancelled. WTF

Next up... 2000 HP at the wheels :rock: :icon17:

Noop, not me.

Yeah, not looking good weather wise right now. :ugh2:

I'll be keeping a close eye on their IG or FB for event status too. We shall see.

Just looked at Weatherbug, it says sunny high of 61 deg on Sunday. Who knows.

I am ready to go racing as long as Mother Nature says I can. I can't stand waiting anymore. Ready to get after it.

LMAO, Steve McQueen said it best: "Life is racing and everything else is waiting!"

Go out and do something awesome. :tup:

Well, it was one heck of many issues to deal with. Trailer tire blowing, 5 new ones installed. Then a valve stem on an outside dually wheel blew, it was flat when I went to fill up. 2 hrs later. Roll racing was new to me so I took it slow. Traction out the wazo with the new wheels an tires. 140mph, 150mph, 160mph, 157mph, then the dreaded 147mph. I missed 5th. On the lap around the track the car temp gauge spiked. Limped it back to the pits, coolant had came out the coolant reservoir. I had noticed it earlier and thought I may have over filled it. NOT!!!! It appears I was pushing a little coolant on every high boost run. I developed a air pocket. Car over heated. Bleed the system back and and took it for a drive. Temps are fine. I didn't kill the motor but it got dang hot 268 deg. It will have to come back out sometime in the future. At the moment it will stay on low boost until then.

Sounds like a very eventful weekend. :tup: Glad the car's not hurt.

Glad you and the car made it through the weekend. Big learning experience I bet.

I was getting faster and trying to figure out how to maximize my driving. Sucks the car broke. Chit happens with high HP cars.

Dealing with new tune/setup, new tires, first time track—- man you did good. Shifting three times from start to finish. Don’t think our 3.692 final gears are ideal for roll racing events either. Just being able to run that beast WOT at those top speeds was cool to watch I might add. Tires held their grip on that track too. You’ll no doubt do better/be faster next go around. Chit happens but that’s racing. You left Poconos with a lot more knowledge about the car then when you entered…and that’s a good thing.

Post your videos John if you don't mind. I didn't do anything record breaking but that is all good. I had fun, until I didn't.

@Spooler - Pocono Roll Racing - Oct 3rd 2021

Got 4 of his 5 runs... all except for his fastest :shakes head: He snuck around the track and did a back to back run and caught us off guard. :ugh2:

Enjoy! :tiphat:
