Nice clean launch 
These are the HS kids or something? I can't quite remember :\
Nice clean launch
Those actual sponsors, or just the obligatory "The stickers came in the box" sponsors? 
And while what you lost by is important, WHAT'D YOU RUN is what we want to know!!

Thanks. The sixty foot times are off. I broke my best converter last year and the spare is too loose. I have a new one coming. My best sixty foot time all weekend was only a 1.39.
They are all High School kids that go to my Church. We don't have kids, so we decided to borrow other peoples!
At sanctioned events they all pay if you win or runner-up.
On that run both of us had .015 reaction times. We were dead even and on the brakes at the finish line. I ran a 6.64 on a 6.62 dial (100 mph). I qualified with a 6.61 @ 103 mph.

That was the first batch as I had 90% of the fender covered when I was done http://maxpain.lackeydom.net/Picture%20011.jpg

Thanks!
We will be at Mooresville if it doesn't rain out. We had hoped to have the kids car finished by now, but all the rain has pushed us back a few weeks. I do think that having them work on my car has helped them some. They should be much better prepared when we start running their car.
