Well we had a perfect WoS and as always the volunteers did a great job... yes there seemed to be some delays, but the chance to race on a good course far exceeds any wait time to do so.  Second the great Job by the volunteers.
It's always good to see our USFRA friends and even better to visit the SCTA/BNI inspectors at IMPOUND!!!
We finished with a broken engine and a 234.636 middle mile record in J/BFL... best mile 239.669 with a 240.7 exit
They always run best before they don't

Just got home yesterday, Friday 13th. This was my first time with the car on the salt and I did enjoy it. Got a 198+ time slip, so next time I can turn it loose. There is nothing else like it, quite different from running a paved mile. I have to thank all the USFRA folks for the time and effort spent to make the event happen, very well planned and organized. I met some good people and saw some really impressive machinery.  I met Sid and ZZ, two of the nicest and most helpful guys out there. We developed a strange noise with the tow truck, (old brown Suburban), which Sid quickly diagnosed as a pulley coming loose. Sid then said I should go ahead and make my pass and he would tow me back while my brother worked on the truck. Back in the pits, ZZ then brought over a box of nuts and bolts and stayed there until we got it fixed. I can't say THANK YOU enough, you guys are the BEST.

Good to hear the old brown Burb-dog made it all the way back home to Tennessee, how many gas stops was that M8? You might need to put a 4L80 trans in it for some mileage, it can be done without an ECU.

Hi everyone.  Here's part 2 . Enjoy 😎.
Finally used my new 300 lens. Took awhile to get a rhythm filming but learned a few things and try different things next year.

Thank you rockracer. You shot a cool video of my Trans Am. I was hoping to get a video of my car in motion.

Well this was my first trip to the Salt and it was amazing.  Sid, Marty, Sara, Rob and Matt, thank you for a great trip.  @tommysgarage...no problems at all, glad you made it home safely.  Been working on my car since I got home.

I guess the old Suburban got a fair amount of attention, but it has shown me that it is not so well suited to pulling a 24' trailer. Not very stable on the road with a cross wind and poor fuel economy. I think a bigger diesel truck would make the trip easier. 4200 miles in the old Suburban really wore me out. I am very grateful for the fine folks who helped keep it going, my brother and I had a good time and I want to do it again.

Thank you rockracer. You shot a cool video of my Trans Am. I was hoping to get a video of my car in motion.

Glad you enjoyed it.  That TA always been one of my favorites to see run.
