Willowbank 18th July

Well another T+T come and gone. Didn`t get as cool as I`d have hoped. I wonder if we`ll have any really cool nights again this year.

I improved my burnout performance subsequently my 60 foot came back down and I netted a best ET out of the 2 runs ( it was pretty full ) of 11.728 @ 119.48 mph.

I may have held first gear a bit long but it was leaving the line really well and biting each gear so I had traction alrighty.

I reckon its as good as I`ll do. I`m more than happy to brutally honest.

Nice work John!!

I managed a 11.705 @119.66mph, my last run I used the handbrake and stalled it up to 3100 and when I launched she smoked the f*ck out of the MT's!!!! I was running 30psi which has been fine leaving the line at 2800 but I think I will let them down to 24 next time. I think I dont need to let em down as much as you guys with the 17's because being 16's, I have a higher wall.

Anyway, way too many cars there. It was same temp as wednesday night when I was running 121mph but it was 68% humidity then compared to 93% tonight. I'll be there again next saturday night. Want that 11.5!!

I held first too long, I`m sure if I refine my shift points an 11.5 could happen.

I try to avoid racing people I know, now.. It removes another distraction in my view.

I didn`t feel 100% on the night either. Got home felt worse. Ended up with some pretty wild chest pain I figured was indigestion.

By 4:00 am it was fairly well off scale, I`m not really a sook either. So, I drove up the hospital, lol I even sat at the lights in town at 4:30am like a dick, I was nearly taking bites out of the upolstery, was starting the smart a bit.

Took 2 lots of Morph to rein it back to tolerable levels. Lotsa tests, upshot was a mild heart attack on the bottom of the heart or some mumbo jumbo.

Irregular line on the EEG, heart inflammed, gotta take easy etc.. Not 25 anymore.. Blah blah.

So, I gotta monitor it all maybe go see my doc and get a second EEG doen to compare..

I need to perhaps stop carrying full size oxy bottles up verticle flights of stairs, get more sleep, not think that work is really that friggin important.

Let Steve push his own car lol..

I might still have some morphine on board so I`m rambling a bit.
