Default Where are you racing this weekend?

I will be racing tomorrow at Lone Star Raceway(Sealy, TX). I am trying to move up in the points chase and win some money.

Sunday & Monday, I am going to go racing at Texas Motorplex(Ennis, TX). We are out to win a little money at the Super 10's.

I will be running in the footbrake bracket class all three days.

How about you guys and gals?

Gone Racing,
Coach

Muncie Dragway in Muncie, IN tonight. They have extreme street racing night. They turn clocks off and that sort of thing. Im going just to get the car tuned in better for bowling green. We are getting closer. got 99mph out of her in the 1/8 Wednesday. Had some issues and had to call it a night after an aborted run.

Hope all issues are solved and can get some SOLID passes on the car tonight for some peace of mind in BG.

Good luck guys!

In my dreams. My motor blew up, and all racing is on hold. It is very hard to race a car with no motor. I wonder if I could find 550 real horses to pull me down the track.

Bear, What Happened? The last that I had heard, you were hauling Butt at the track.

Very cool to see so many LS1tech members racing this weekend.

Well Coach, we were flying for us. My wife drove the car to a new best on some shakedown runs an 11.70 @115. This is at 3620 raceweight. On the very next run a rod bolt let go and grenaded the entire engine. The only thing I could salvage were the heads. I am having JPR build me an Alum Block 409 using the Darton sleeve, and the TSP offset ground crank. I am hoping to be back in 5-7 weeks. Enjoy the wekend if the weather permits!
