A good day

We had 3 sessions yesterday. In the first session, my main focus was on the mechanics of the car. I really was anticipating a problem, but none surfaced. After the session. went over the car and everything looked good. I now had a lot more confidence, and could work on getting more comfortable in car. In the second session my lap times improved, and it was now all coming back. I was having fun now.

That's Ted Wenz sitting on the tire, he's will known in the racing community for his engines and on occasion, drives a F5000 car..

One nagging problem was engine rpm, it should have no problem reaching 7500, the best was 6100. I suspected the mufflers were to restrictive. If I removed the baffles from the end of the mufflers, this should fix the problem and not increase the noise level too high.

Session 3

Bingo! It felt like the engine had a extra 150 HP and no problem bring it over 7000rpm.

Today their will be 2 session, both are qualifying.
