RE: Pinks All Out & Akron Don

[Rich Kinsley <rlkinsley@xxxxxxxxx>]

Shucks, I can't get it to open. Darn. I was staging at about 2800rpm on 
a 3000 stall Dynamic converter. Occasionally it overpowers the brake and 
starts turning the tires before I'm ready to go on the light. That got 
me my redlight at the Geezer drags. I didn't push out of staging but I 
was so deep into it that a hiccup made me redlight. I had a -.013sec. 
I'll try not cranking it up so high in the future and see how that goes.
