To say there was NO TRACTION would be the understatement of the year But then again it was the first night of the year, and I don't believe the e.t. cars have run on the weekends yet due to the weather. The nice thing is this weekend is the Division 3 Event, so the alcohol cars and all the other racers will put down a lot of rubber.The last pass was my best for the evening....a crappy 13.46 @125 mph (according to the timeslip...speed seams a little off). That 13.46 was the only time I dipped into the 13's and that was attained after I got out of the throttle twice just to get the car to hook.
I'm ready to hit Muncie or possibly US41 sometime....

Yeah Charlie I've been there and done that...I used to have 2.73's in my car. I made the switch to 3.73's a year ago yesterday and couldn't be happier.
Yeah, we both had great lights. That was my second best reaction time ever. My favorite part was when I drove around you at the end
If you go again next week, look me up....we'll have to run 'em again. I'm looking for that elusive 12 second pass

If I am not working on my car, I will come and watch. I'll be the referee.
But more than likely I will be in my garage trying to get my car done. It's killing me, not being done yet!

I know I put up a poll on which night would be best to attend, but I think it would be great if we could make a point to attend this one (in addition to one of the other two nights if that is how you voted)...

MIDNIGHT MADNESS AT IRP FOR THE INAUGURAL JERAMY SCHMITT MEMORIAL DRAG RACE
IRP will hold a Midnight Madness event at IRP for the Jeramy Schmitt Memorial Drag Race on Friday, April 28th. All proceeds from the night will go to the Jeramy Schmitt Memorial Scholarship fund.
Schmitt was an 18-year-old Senior at Cathedral High School when he passed suddenly on the Cathedral football field on September 20, 2005. The passing brought players from not only his Irish team but also from Danville, his hometown, and other teams to his memorial as they celebrated his spirit and love for his school.
Tim Schmitt, Jeramy’s father, hopes this event will raise money for the scholarship and celebrate his son’s life. “In all honesty there are only two things that make me happy right now, one is doing things for my other son, Josh and keeping Jeramy’s name and caring spirit out there, because that is all we have left.”
The scholarship was created to provide under privileged children an opportunity to attend Cathedral High School, they have received donations from across the country and have had support from the Bob and Tom show.
The idea to hold the memorial drag race at IRP came from Jeramy’s love of racing and attending the O’Reilly Tuesday Night Street Legal Series events. “Every Tuesday night he and his friends would get together and come to IRP,” says Tim. “He was the only one that drove a big truck to school and he loved to race against his friends in their Mustangs and Corvettes, he just loved to race and we thought this was appropriate.”
“We were approached by the Schmitt family at the beginning of the year when they inquired about holding the event,” said Mike Myslinski, director of operations at IRP. “We feel this event is a tremendous way to raise awareness of the scholarship and honor Jeramy.”
Gates will open at 4:30 with racing starting at 6:00 P. M. The night will feature a show and shine contest and a stereo contest. Cost is $15.00 to race and $7.00 for spectators.

No, that's Brent's GTP. It was a Medium Gulf Blue Metallic Daytona Pace Car replica. $20 isn't too bad I suppose. I'd sure like a professional picture at the track.
