Post subject:  Final Round From Jeffers Motorsports Park 9/5/21
Here is the Final Round Slip:

I jus' barely did not hand the win over to Joel on a breakout. He had me covered at the Tree.. I am guessing that the car would have ran a 7.56 if I didn't lift.

Thanks for sending me a copy of the slip Joel!

Yeah, It's hard to beat a 7.59 on a 7.59!! :D Joel had a good run too!

We need to get you down to the states for a points race!. you can run down lots of stockish slower cars here.

Many of the owners / drivers of the notable faster cars are retiring or selling off their stuff.

I was almost the fastest Slant car at Clay City at 13.50s in the 1/4. Greg and Rick are fastest door cars right now running in the Slant series?

Ryan is faster with Seymour's old Blue car, but He is not campaigning it this year.

As more fast guys and gals retire and sell off their stuff the Drive trains get pulled and converted to some non slant stuff.

I am hoping to step mine up some for next year, not for sale yet. :mrgreen:

Rodney has been faster than Rick, hasn't he?

Rodney is in the low to mid 13s.

Thanks, guys. Of course I was forgetting people still in the game. I think Rodney ran something like 12.80 at his fastest ever? Low 13s more recently.

I really need to build a new motor for the turbo Dart (200k on this one) and work on tuning and fix the CH3OH/H2O injection. Maybe a higher stall converter too. I feel like high 11s would be in reach with that car.

Ryan will be back next year with the blue 62 I'm sure.

Glad to hear that, Dennis!

He posted 12:70's on FB. I've been 12:90's with the big header in. Rob's been close with the Duster, faster with his Challenger.
