Check out that nice car. Looks like Yeaman's 3.0 track car, with Mr B at the wheel.

I pulled out EVERYTHING trying to make that damn car stick. I arrived at the event in the car and decided to run it on the street tires... walked back into the pit area prior to my run group and found Yeaman changing the car over to the Hoosier road race tires... I about shit... after seeing the surface and knowing that the Hoosiers where 2 year old road race compound after 13 heat cycles.. I knew I was in for a fun ride. IT SUCKED. The car would turn in pretty good, but the rear end was ALL OVER the place..even with slight throttle input. If I went slow and smooth my times where the same as fast and out of control.. so I went with the most entertaining route (sling it around and impress the onlookers with car control...LOL)

I *thought* I would dial in more front bar during lunch.. DENIED. Late start meant NO lunch.

Yeah and you took 3rd place in the race category!!!!!!!! You were the most entertaining to watch because you were fighting traction all the way around. The big spins are always crowd pleasers though.

I aim to please. The car had 54's in it.. just not on those tires. I should have taken a pic of the Hoosiers... down to the nylon cords... It was no wonder it wouldnt even think about sticking.
