Sunday was a bust.

I filled the gas tank for even more ballast and managed to hook fairly well. I got my best 0-60 of the event and trapped 119 in the 1/4. The car normally turns 120 so that was pretty good. However, the wind was blowing and I turned 143 in the 1/2 and 169.9 mph in the mile.

Winds were blowing steady at 20 mph and gusting 35+ straight at us. We were done. Everyone was done.

I'll take 170 mph in the mile considering the fact that I was in my daily driver. Bone stock and zero prep.

My friend Wade was going for 200 in his C5 Z06 then was going to put it up for sale. It's a full jungle gym all out race car with plexi windows and a pair of turbos.

He pulled it off the trailer, staged, and ripped a 200.6 mph pass. Some air got under the driver's window right at the mile mark. The window blew out and took the door skin with it.

In true racer form, he didn't lift.

That car is now for sale and is fast enough to blow its own door off.


Make sure he puts that line in the ad copy. For a small commission of course.
