Good day for a test run

fairlane_68 · October 18th, 2008, 10:38 PM

Today was a good day to test all the chassis prep I did for the race that got cancelled last month. I got the car running last weekend, drove it a couple times, but didn't have a chance to really put it through the ringer until today. I cleaned the car, loaded up my safety gear and camera gear, and drove to a remote part of the base. Nice twisty road, cool temps, and sticky tires. Couldn't ask for better conditions. I only have in-car shots and video and posed shots, sorry...I don't have external camera mounts, or nothing I'm willing to attach a $900 camera to.

I apologize for wearing Mechanix gloves...I forgot my real race gloves. And for future reference, Simpson suits are sized a little big...those pants were falling off, and I was hot as hell in that outfit. I got it used from Frank Hawley's Drag Racing School in Florida...they may have some leftover. A Coolshirt is defeinitely in order. I'll have a video up soon.
