I took a 1st place finish at the Seekonk Speedway Spectator Drags this weekend (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) . I've been a huge fan of this local event for the past 10 years. Finally decided to enter my Camaro in it 3 years ago. I shocked myself and didn't think I'd win this quickly. Ended up taking home a huge 5 foot tall trophy and I got a check in the mail today for 100 bucks. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Thanks to you guys for a lot of good suspension setup advice, especially Sam. Koni singles, stock springs, 35mm front and 21mm rear swaybar, solid rod end panhard bar, goes a long way for making the car feel controllable on the oval track. Without all your help, I wouldn't of had a good goal for a setup (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Here's some clips that one of the drivers took: http://www.newenglandtunerz.com/NETz/PhotosVideos.htm specifically the spectator drag clips. Lots of contact and a damage at this event unfortunately. I haven't had any contact yet and don't believe I'd ever be crazy enough to drive hard enough to hit the wall.

I also haven't fixed my engine tap noise yet (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) , but I didn't feel like watching. Now that I won, I feel like I'm in a good comfort zone and will get my block replaced first before I go back. Winning this event was actually my biggest lifetime goal, and I fulfilled it. Next goal... buy a house (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

I'm not done either! I'll be back to hopefully win some more (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
