Time to feed the fires a bit with only a couple days to go before a prayed for dry Stanton.

Paul got the chance to drive the SD both days this weekend. Unfortunately we did not meet up when I was trolling around in the Runner to test the new SD motor against a proven quantity. Any how here is a summory of Paul during his first outing in the SD.

As Pual tooled around the freshened ride he was chatting me up with this info. Much harder to luanch becuase the car can much more easily spin the tires. The big change he said, and I could hear the smile through his cell, is that "the top end pulls much harder than ever before."

He was really happy with the trans that actually obeyed him also.

Looks like Paul will have his hands full trying to dial in a new driving style to get the SD off the line and down the track. He may take a bit to sort out the new ride on the track but first impression is that the car is much faster than before.
