BENDER I suck.... Saturday night race, we started out with a cool 85 but 63% humidity with we are not use to, car was slow at 10.65 adjusted was 6,259. Run for the money I dial 10.66 an run it with a 4 . That should have got it as everyone was having trouble but the last pair behind me with my friends go One dialing 7.50 and runs it with an 0....then first round I have s 7.85 car with 176 mph verse me at 125.... I tree him bad with a .008 against his .044 . I had the car on 10.66 dialed hard , as he was coming I thought he not going to make it but I was dialed hard so ran it out . Dumb me Some how I run 10.599 he ran 7.830 for the win... when I check weather station we still at 6,123 60 1 thou fast and 330 was 5 thou fast but after that I picked up hard.

Dang Nick. To pick up that much down track is very odd, especially if the early numbers were close to your previous run. Russians hacked the timing system? HMMMM

Barry on that last hit the air got better just on the last 1000 FT .... Hahaha

Back at the pit after the hit check and went to 6091 adjusted... ET should not have moved that far humidity dropped from 76.3 % to 73.1% by my weather station.

Barry, Bradford was out there playing but lost first round , he had to dial a slow 7.00. He killed and 97 MPH but still ran a high 6.70s...... It was really good to see him out for a team event . Second time hit he went 6.13 at above 6200 adjusted .....Dang

I'm sure Moe can hook a brother up with a 300 HP override... Blue Man

I remember years ago (1983) at Sonoma racing Leonard Sampson in his 17 sec 6 cyl nova. I was dialed 8.19. It looked like he was parked between MPH and ET clocks... LMAO !! Man that was fun!
