Got the skinnies on today. I've been battling opiate withdrawl for the last couple weeks. My doctor and I decided it would be a good idea to try and reduce my dose, but it hasn't worked out so good. Fentanyl withdrawl sucks. I go to the doctor on monday to try and figure something out.

I can't imagine what you're going through. Any relief from medicinal marijuana?

The cannabis helps a lot - but you don't get much done when you use it. I try to get thru most of the day without it, but in the afternoon thru the night I need it. I did have a good streak going and didn't need the cannabis for a month, so there is a lot of hope.

What a day. Car wouldn't hook and I wasn't the only one. The starting line was tore to shit from the snowmobile races that were going on.


It went 11.696@119.34 with a 1.704 60ft

It was 82* with almost 80% humidity.


My brother got his stang down to 13.1@108


So it was a good day - just chased my ass trying to make the car hook.

I like the MPH! And you had fun! Both temp and humidity up here for the past 6 weeks have both been in the 90's. It's been brutal on the cars at the track.

It was a good time. I need to raise the front back up - would have done it at the track but I forgot my tape measure. It was fun putting bus lengths on some cars.

Got some new toys. Need to move the tires back for more clearance. No more squeaky poly!  :rock:

Plan is more air pressure in the slicks, slow down the front and hope she hooks.


Those lowers weight less than 3lb each.

I'm digging the black oxide finish - tired of everything being powder coated.
