Good weekend at the dragstrip!

The NMRA Allstars event was going on at Atlanta Dragway this pass weekend. I was going to go just to watch but decided to put my car in a bracket class to work on my recently acquired red light problem. She dipped into the 5's for the first time (5.94) which was exciting enough for me but I screwed around and ended up in the semi's. Hell, I had the semi won but broke out by .005. Still had a great time and enjoyed watching the insane cars do their thing!

wait till you loose one by .0003 a few times with a guy in the other lane womping the gas and running dead on with a zero.those stick with ya congrats on going to the semi's a mans got to have some luck.

LOL yeah I bet. I womped once, shoulda kept womping

LOL! I thought that might be coming. Not trying to sound like a puss but I think I need to get a little more used to the car before I start trying to go a second faster to compete with yalls hot rods. TN is not far for me. I may come to bracket race and watch yall scatter parts

Right!!! My stance from the beginning was to do it all motor. But, Bruno is testing my balls! He's got me thinking about spraying it so I can come and play in June. The problem is, my set up is working great for what I am wanting to do, but at the same time, I'm already getting that "want more" feeling! Here we go...

Wasn't a .0003 BUT this past weekend while still struggling with my RT's, in the second round I finally cut a nice light. .001 ran the guy down, caught him fairly quick which made my scared about another break out, and started womping. Gave it away and lost by .006.

Great results!
I was there for a little while, dropping off things for the swap meet.

Did you happen to see the quiet orange little fox body running 6.80's @230+ with an 84 year old man driving? They say they had a remote to shut the car down after the quarter because he won't let off LOL

Yeah
That crew was in Tulsa last year testing when I showed up for Unleashed.
The guy was pretty cool. He had about 4 full time employees...
I need someone to shut my car off when I am gonna break out!
