Default Post up your weekends Race results!

I can't race this weekend. Broken trans in the 1969 Camaro. I broke it last weekend at HRP in the 2 round. SUCKS! I had the tree on the guy, .521 to a .638. :p The car just didn't shift into 3rd gear. I had to shut her down. Oh well, thats Drag Racin!

2 race cars, both broke.

Our tranny guy just couldn't get it fixed in such short notice. We took it out on Wed. night and he had it Thursday morning.

I will be back in action next weekend.

So, My fellow racers, how did your weekend go?

Coach

sorry to hear about your bad luck coach! I'd let you borrow my formula, but I need it for my daily commute and a broken trans wouldn't help much! J/K
2nd round for me, 050 light and 18 thousandths break-out taking a .010 stripe on the brakes. Just was late on the tree!

It was King of the Hill and Quick 32 again at my local track. I did go out for some T&T. The track always hooks great at these events. I ran a (1.68)7.56@90mph. Not too shaby for a bolt on car in this weather
