Looks like the Vettes were having traction problems. Pete aborted his on the vids after hitting second gear and spinning the tires.

Just got back.
11.1 @ 127.76

The video is my second pass clutch was gone it didn't wanna go in gear.
The 60 ft was good 1.60 the first one was better 1.59

Man what a gear change can do (4.10's)

Them Buick boys sure know how to prep the track, holly cow.
My clutch is fried,had enough just to get me home.

Was a great time weather was great 80f and very humid.

The Buick boys told us if we wanted we could've raced on Friday also.

Anyway more later i'm tired and i have to relax my shifting arm for next week racing,of course after a fresh clutch.

Bob's 427 ran good he was trying/testing a new cluth i'll let him explain.
You also have to remember we just finished that car a few days before BG.


Pete

BG is about 700 mile from home so I left the DRs behind.
The Pilots started to hook after running them down to 20 psi
Best run was a 12.79 @ 116 mph with a 2.13 sixty

Jim had his Nitto DRs on and with the help of my helmet cut some good times

Jeff, Thanks for shooting the videos!

Thanks to the Buick GS/GN folks for letting us race with them. They are a great group!

And thanks for the loan of a fast helmet, Phil

I had my drag radials. The track was very sticky for me. I had better 60' times than all last year and my best ET ever.

Best run (MV 5112 above):

60' 1.963
ET 12.762
speed 108.44

Jim

Cool, nice work on the PB Jim! If I'm not mistaken, that's a PB for you too Phil? Or no?

Don't take it the wrong way, but seeing Phil's and Keith's cars spin like crazy from the line helps me feel better about sticking with the stock 3.45's. I'm sure with some more grip and if I had more skill, the car would be faster with 4.10's, but I think I'd just be blowing the tires away all the time.
