Our boys did a great job and brought the trophy back to the ZR-1 group.
But it wasn't without injury,on my 3rd pass took out my second gear.
Best I mustered was 11.30 it was good enough to bring it home.

We'll make them better,stronger we have the technology for next year.:cheers:

well it was fun to run the car after 8 years not being on a drag strip with it. I did not run any times that helped win this deal, but I did take one of the other club's car out in the first round, and than in the next round I got put next to Kevin! He was our guy to win this thing and I had to run him, what am I going to do......I know, red light, run slow, miss a gear, something to take me out so Kevin can keep going!

And what happened......as soon as I got up to the line it all went out the window for what I was gong to do, I just ran as hard as I could, Kevin went flying past me right at the end, and that is when it hit me, what did I do, if I beat him I am going to feel like crap!

as I turned on the return road and got to the booth for the time slip Kevin was already gone with his slip and I could not see what he got. As I got up their to get it all I wanted to see was a yellow paper not white, they hand me a yellow slip and I was happy, Kevin beat me, I am saved!

I look at the slip, and I broke out, all the better! it was my best run of the day. I was set up to run 12.300 and the slip was 12.2449.

the days runs in order:
12.5891 120.66
12.3589 121.62
12.3091 119.74
12.3479 121.65
12.3441 119.65
12.3609 119.39
12.3441 119.65
12.2449 119.74 and I lost.......yes

Dean,

Not too shabby for an old dude ;) Having the trailer there was great too.
We'll need to do this again. Don't forget the 1/2 mile event next year again.
