Just wanted to give a quick recap on our trip to the NMRA 2010 season opener at Bradenton Motorsports Park last weekend in Bradenton, FL. The weather was perfect. Cold, sunny and clear skies.
Jeremy Martorella from UPR Products loaded up the car and the motorhome and made his way up to the track Wed night. I met him at the gate just before they opened up on Thursday morning. We set up camp, unloaded and prepped the car.
After our first few test runs it was apparent that some changes we made to the car weren't working out too well for us. So with the help of Jeremy and the crew from Dex Racing we swapped in the original parts and thought everything was good to go. Even after that the car just wasn't cooperating with us. Although we never got any good passes Jeremy advanced us to the quarter finals in the Modular Muscle Class.
Here's a pic of our car launching compliments of Mike Galimi. Thanks Mike!
It was great seeing everyone at the event. Although it felt like a set back for us we've still got one thing on our mind... A 8 second pass with the factory 6 speed. We're not giving up until it's done so stay tuned.
Thanks a lot to everyone for all of their help and support. Jeremy Martorella, Tim Eichorn, Mike Dez, the DeMarco brothers, Mental Midget, Telly, Jon Lund, UPR PRoducts and everyone else who came by to say hello to us.
