Default drags tonight

well it kinda sucked traction was awful ....... they made the waterbox were i couldnt get around it cause they put water over the entire entrace to the staging lights ...... however i got 3 runs - run one spun through 2nd about 2/3rds to the 1/8 mile got traction at the top of second pulled a high 14 kinda sucked ...... run 2 got a pretty good 60ft for my being my 3rd time to race a stick on street tires - 2.134 and ran a 13.8 at 100.74 i was pissed at the other track got a 2.225 and ran a 13.7 at 102.05 ..... 3rd run get up to the lights time to launch and bang bang crunch crunch something gave out stopped before the 330 mark and with the way i came out of the hole it would have been a great run with the way the launch was going till it said f you to me (at least it felt a lot faster than my other runs coming out of the hole)..... dont think it was anything serious cause i was able to limp it almost 75 miles back to my house without incident im guessing right now prolly tranny mount or u-joint .... find out tomorrow

Good times. Yeah,. some other people were saying the track was a bit slow as well that night. I am at my wits end with my car. Replacing waterpump tomorrow and I am ripping my 670 CFM holley Avenger vacuum carb off in favor of a 575cfm Demon Double Pumper.
