First outing results. - 04/24/11 09:17 PM

Let me just say that Summit Motorsports Park is awesome. Looked like we were gonna get rain in the afternoon, but it held off for some great racing. Little windy, but made it safer to only run 1/8th mile. My objective was to make sure my car was ready for action at first points race in May. Did not do much on off season, but replaced oil pump, rod and main bearings, inspected/adjusted transmission, new front tires. Wanted to make sure oil pressure good. Car performed flawless. First pass off the trailer .008 light 1.310 60' 6.083 @ 110.94, second pass -.001 light 1.311, 6.080 @ 111.70. First round of eliminations 6.07 dial .001 light 1.291 60' 6.056 @ 111.4, opponent 5.46 dial .004 light 5.461, I took the stripe by .017 for the loss to a .005 package. Hard to be upset with that. Car did what I wanted and driver shook off the cobwebs withe some tight lights, Car is in trailer and ready to create havoc at the first points race.

Good job Lonnie. With numbers like that there is not much of a chance anyone getting past the first round.

Sounds like you are ready for the season of All Mopar Series Racing, but what kind of car did it take to out run that Dart? Hope to see you and your dad at "The Spring Nostalgia Nationals" where you can kick some Ford and Chevy butt too!
