We ended up having a great race. Everybody there had a great time and we all got to put faces with names and get to know each other. We had 10 cars show up with one breaking before the actual race so 9 cars were entered in eliminations. We had 4 cars that broke something within the last week before the race. We had another 4 cars that confirmed they would be there and didn't show for reasons unknown. If those 8 would have showed it would have been a full 16 car field but thats how it goes, nothing you can do about it. It was really really really HOT and that plagued all of us. Added to that I think every car there was having some sort of issue with their car that was not allowing it to run to its potential. For us it was the trans/converter....it wouldn't even let us do a burnout! I don't know how the car still ran 5.60s without even a burnout and wet tires but it did. Luck was def on our side. Anyway, here is how everything ended up.....
