Thanks Robert. Should have bracket raced it in the 1/8. LOL
By the time it started, about -650 and ended at -450. So nothing crazy. This weekend may be quite a bit better.
I wasn't sure I could get a 1.50 60' out of her. I figured 1.51 was all it's got in it. Now I'm not sure I can't coax a 1.49 out of it if it cools down some. LOL

Well bud off to the track for maybe the last time😕.
DA should be around -900 or better until 1pm. So from 11 to 1 we are going to have to try to get something done. Pressure should be good according to folks that know that stuff. LOL
I'm really hoping for a 1.499 60' and a 10.399 ET. Wish me luck. LOL

I was also. Just before leaving I checked and the track is closed due to a major power outage from the storms and wind we had yesterday.😢😢
Poor oilburner is driving about 4.5hrs back home.
I can only hope the weather holds for awhile so I can get back out.

The 'so nothing crazy' line is funny to a guy in TN. The only time we see that air is when it's too cold to race!
Congrats on the good et's. I'm considering taking mine to Beech Bend next weekend to try out the 1/4 mi for the first time with it.

Too cold to race comes later. This morning as I was about to leave the DA was neg 1800, diecast was to climb to -750 or so during the day. LOL
Our track is pretty much open until snow. Or power failures. Usually as long as it doesn't stay below freezing they open.

I was farting around on the Hellcat and Demon Racing page on Faceballs and noticed this car isn't on any of the lists for the quickest/fastest cars. Why's that?

 

[hellno]

Because it would scare the others off the list

The ones at the top of the lists for stock powered anything are not running a 2.62. 😉

That or they think your timeslips are in metric.

They just got power back about sn hour ago. But the forecast looks like rain at about noon tomorrow and they open at 11. So not looking good. Then if the weather forecast is correct then this might be it.😡😫.
Looks like snow maybe this week as well as below freezing as a high next weekend.

CANT YOU USE THE SNOW TIRES JIM OR ADDS SOME CHAINS ,THEY DO CALL IT RACING FROM A DIG

I also haven't submitted any times to those that would put it on a list.
One person asked someone running a list about my times. Apparently according to him I'm the quickest. But then he posted yesterday he ran the record at 10.58 last night. 😃
They discredit me for being in Canada😀. But it's ok for a stock car on drag tires to hold that record with a gear change. 🤪😀

It's kinda cool to see it on a list but it doesn't matter. I know how it runs. So do you now, as well as some others from a small group that meet up at the track here.
