Default NORC Pictures...(56K will die a horrible death)

Hear are most of the good ones I have. Total is 93 pictures but I tried to only put up the ones that were the best of the group. I am still working on getting the video up. Looks like I have to buy some new software to do it.














This truck ran in the 170mph class

The crickets are all further north. We have never had a problem with them in this area. As a matter of fact, I dont even think they inhabbit the area around the silver state.

Nice pictures. So what are the slicks on the ZR1s used for? Looks like soooo much work to go 200mph... Does that Volvo have a cage or were they just banking on the fact that 'it's a Volvo'? I want to do this sometime, ****.

That hose circulates water from the shop truck into the block of the race car. There are fittings in the rear of the truck it hooks to. Takes about 5 minutes and the race car motor is warmed up without even starting it.

How ya like the sunburn on my legs? They are still hurting me today.

Nope - That's a bar, not a cage. Get it right!

It didnt run the main event. It might run it next year. It did run in the 0-100-0 and the 1 mile high noon shootout. I havent seen the result posted yet for either of those events.
