Nice day at the track for me.

Nice day at the track for me. - 10/21/13 02:48 AM

I got back to the track today as I raced at Cecil County in Md in an NSS race. I have not really done anything to the car and it ran the same as my best 3 passes in a row. Yep 10.76 three times in a row as it was consistent today for sure. Thats running 92 pump thru the full exh driving the 90 mile round trip. I won the first round against a sweet Roadrunner with a 10.76 on my 10.75 dail and then had to run my brother in his 9 second Cuda the second round. I ran 10.76 again on my 10.75 dail as he ran 9.32 on his 9.29 dail but he killed me on the light as I went .078 to his .012. I will admit I am a little rusty on the tree but I had a ton of fun and nothing broke and I drove it home. So all in all was a good day. I think my niece took a video of my brother and me racing but I have to wait for her to send it to me. Ron

Nice to see you made it out Ron. I know you've been chompin at the bit. It's always nice when the results fall into line as well.

Yes MPH was the same and very consisdent as it ran between 124.27 to 124.89 every run. I wanted to jet up but the jetting is nice where it is for street driving and I did not feel like doing any work on the car unless I really had to as I had already taken my pain meds and my back was still hurting. My plans are to try the Mopar 337 single plane intake and a Dominator carb when I can get around to it. Ron

Any car that drives Both ways to the track and clicks off a ten, then looks great to boot has my respect.

Glad to hear you got out Ron....

Gotta love it when the car decides to run a number and stick with it!!
On my last outing, I didn't set any personal bests or anything, but the car ran five 10.90's , a 10.91, a 10.92, then sped up a bit in the afternoon with a 10.878 and backed that up with a 10.879 run. Same thing in elim's as you though as I dialed a 10.90 and ran a 10.913 letting off then slept at the tree in 2nd round and had to break out by .02 .
One of these days I might find out that there is more than one round in eliminations!!!!

Ron,

No we aren't going. They changed the date to Nov 9th and it will be a day race. I have a conflict that day.
