well, I was kinda on the fence about coming, and I wanted to get another test session here at home before towing down, but the local track here had some issues with the asphalt breaking apart and coming apart so they closed last week and for another week to repair, repave and grind the track.

so I am just going to come down and give it a try.
count me in with a competitive car or not.

Greg

We had 8 cars today. Ron Hamby came up with the win and Lukas Bruner was runner up in the funny truck. Ron also set a C alcohol record. His car was pulling the front wheels really good too!

Moe to come.

Thanks so much for the postings, pics, and standings everyone! Really wish I could have been there.

Congrats to Ron and to Charlie (and ALL the racers) and we'll see you all at Crossville!

Ron, how fast was your record run??

Lou the C-Alcohol record was open so I moved up one weight class to fill the record. The speed is good but not out of reach if someone wants to better it later. It is 7.66. I did find out that by adding the 65lbs to the rear of the car to make the 2700 lb class my 60' time went from 1.62 average to a low of 1.53 which tells me I have been having wheel spin that I was not aware of. So I intend to keep the weight in. I cant believe I find myself adding weight to go faster but that's the case this time. :)
