Wow that was some pretty crappy racing weather, might as well just pull two sparkplug wires.

In the fall it will be more like 0-500 DA.

Yeah that was me in the burg. camaro. I did see you there also. Nice looking car. It was too hot to be there. I was only there to hit the tree a few times. I had a good day. Made 8 passes. reactions were like this. .067, .045, .002, .020, .008, .004, .016, .022. I was happy with that and I think I am ready for the points race on Sunday.

what class are you going to be running in? I was in the h/s class two races ago but ran way too fast for the class (first time at the track with this car).

This sunday ill be going to Pro.

I dont know how much you are there but my dad races the orange dragster.

I guess the calculators are right. I would take them with a grain of salt if you know what I mean. Times are no good unless you have the slip in hand. I run in Pro there. I run points there. What orange dragster. I know Jay Allen runs a orange rail. I can't think of another. Sorry the rails all kinda look alike to me.

On Tues. due to the heat there were only 28 cars. They only ran to 8 pm.
