Got to the final and had to run my most recent nemisis Claude Debonis. He is a great racer and fellow div1 transplant who has now beaten me 3 times in the last 2 weeks Finish margin in the final was .0002 He went on to win the quick doorcar/dragster runoff over John Taylor in his chevy powered Dakota.

I may put a plate on for some Div 2 races?? Here is Claude at Div 2 Bradenton TD race. Car went completely vertical and smashed both front wheels off when it landed He made first round the next morning has Worthy on speed dial!

Sure did miss seeing you at the Rock this weekend, the weather was unbelievable, sunny, no clouds in the sky. Maybe next time. You missed a good race. Dave
