Mark, the 1/8th mile race at Clay City was a makeup race for a Knoxville rainout if I remember correctly. :D

I like a good conspiracy theory. I was trying to add one to slant 6 racing.
I have always been wrong about the theories in the past.
I thought Hillary Clinton did something wrong when she turned a $1000 into $100,000 over night with cattle futures while in Arkansas, but she must have not broke the law because she didn't go to jail. I was wrong.
I thought OJ Simpson was guilty of the killings, but a jury proved me wrong.
I am sure the same thing is true about the Seymour record conspiracy theory, I am wrong.
One of the many bad things about the internet is you can't tell if somebody is joking or not unless they use those smiley face things.
Please Seymour or Rick or anybody else, no hard feelings.
Hopefully we will try to set the 1/8 mile record another day.

Mark

Thanks Mark! No hard feelings, and I feel certain your more than capable car will break that record and when you do I will applaud your efforts for pushing the envelope! :lol:

Yes smileys help a lot!!! :D :D :D

I like Smileys!! :D :D :D

I even went back into Mark's post and added them. :wink:

I also added 20 points to Rusty's total for the official 1/4 mile record Seymour approved. That bumped him up to 2nd place.

Hi Rob,

Are you doing official record updating now? I see my D/S records are not up there yet. Maybe I should just do it since Seymour sent me confirmation? 14.006 and 103.58 MPH for 1/4 mile records...

Thanks,

Lou

Ryan Covalt usually does the update but he has been busy. Rob you can add Lou's times of 14.06 and 103.58 for the 1/4 mile D unlimited class. The records were set at Mason Dixon on October 12, 2015. The car is a 68 Dart and weighed 3,450#

Didn't mean to step on toes. Rick said Ryan wasn't on the Forum much, so I figgered I'd help out. (Good initiative... Poor execution) :oops:

I will update whatever Seymour authorizes me to. He had posted here that Rusty's 1/4 mile was good to go.

I edited the post above to reflect Lou's new records.

Is it 14.06 or 14.006?

No problem at all, Rob. 14.006 is what I have in my records.

Thanks for putting the new records up Rob. I just logged on to update the records before the Mason Dixon Race. I appreciate the help with getting them done and posted. I will try to keep up with the records better than I have recently.

I'm really hoping we need to update even more records after this weekend too. Looking forward to seeing everyone this weekend.

Were any records set at the Mason Dixon race (besides the 9.006 of Will Burns)?

I think Lou lowered his D/S record also. As soon as they send them in to Seymour and he verifies them, Ryan will post them here! Way to go guys! :lol: :lol:

Hey Lou,

I went back to 2015 and added the 20 points for your record as well. It didn't change the standings. You were still 4th, but now you have another 20 points added to your career total. :wink:
