Default Drag Strip (Bandimere) Tonight!!

Well, it looks like after getting a nice dyno day yesterday, I will make it to strip to back up the numbers. My boss is letting me go (the boss being my wife). The weather is overcast today and worried about rain, but forecast says no rain, just overcast and high 70s.

Track will not be sticky, but at least cool temps!!

Now to get a fresh tank of E85 and hit the strip!!

I figure Sid will read this....are you going tonight Sid?

The way my day is going I may not get out of here early. I'm going regardless. The air is finally ok (relative).

It will be interesting to see where the cars fall.

I know I'll be running low 12's at around 115ish.

I'm looking forward to seeing others results.

Lol - not a good nite for the 951... Sid broke the drivers-side axle on his first line-up.

He had is swapped with a good one, and was back in the lanes when I left.

I had very poor first run (bogged badly). Then my second run, something in the clutch/PP broke and will not let the clutch dis-engage... So I coasted out the second run.

Dana, got in a few runs, and had at least one run of 110mph that I saw.


I did get the car home; 22miles without touching the clutch, lol.
Thanks Dana for following me back I owe you a beer!
