Dads 75 nova got a new name
Well my birthday was Friday night so I went to the TNT with my dads nova and we took turns driving it just having a little fun after two jet changes on the front bowls the thing got super consistent so we decided why not run the bracket on Saturday. Made 2 time trials in No-Box and a Dial for Dollars pass and won the D4D and then broke out in first round elims, bought back in and went 5 more rounds and won the race ( agreed to a 50/50 split). Then they called a jackpot race $50 buy in 75% payout so I joined that figured what would that hurt? Made one time trial flubbed it by missing my shift point in second and ended up running 2 more rounds catching the bye run to enter the final and agreed to a 50/50 split and red lit by .0006, anyway back to the title when I went to pick up my checks the track owner and everyone else in the tower kept calling it the LS Nova so I think it will stick out here in West Texas. ET's of the night ranged from 7.77-7.81 and mph was 88.82-89.21 DA was up and down from 5800-6100 all day. Not too bad I don't think.

I do run for track points, I run division 7 tracks I just don't have a IHRA number which will change this next year. We usually run at the other track but this one was open this weekend so we ran it just to have a lil fun. I stopped running the other track this year only due to I didn't want to blow up the other car it has a lean pop in first gear and I just want to fix it before I run it again not to mention the trans and converter and wheels and tires are off my car and on this one lol.
