We have done a lot of racing this past month. We have hit 4 test and tunes and on Saturday we raced a fall series bracket race. It was only 1/8 mile. That was a first for our team. The car ran great!!!! We didn't change anything, just ran it like we were running 1/4 mile. Our first run we set our best 1/8 mile. The car ran 7.25@ 94.84mph. We only got one time trial, before going into elimination. We put 7.25 for the dial in knowing the car would run that. We went 2 rounds. The first round I red lit but the guy I was racing red lit worse. The car ran 7.35 @ 93.95. The second round I drew a track veteran so I knew I had my hands full. I forgot to mention I was running the old geezer class, so there was all kinds of cars. Including race cars with all the electronics, and me running a foot brake car with a two step. The guy I was racing dialed in with a 6.5 and we dialed in with a 7.25. So I knew I had to be on the ball. I had a decent reaction time, but it wasn't good enough. He beat me by 2 100th. I gave him run for his money. I really though I beat him, but I didn't run my dial. I ran 7.37@94.04mph.
It was a great day of racing, and last day we will be racing at that awesome track. Hopefully Bandimere will build us a new track in a year or two.
Next year we will being racing in Pueblo Colorado which is about 2 hours from home.
Well thats it for now.
Thanks for listening. GO FE POWER!!!!!!
