I'm sure Billy will wax an entertaining yarn about what transpired smile Watching the feed it seemed clear he was trying to nail a 11.50, got a 11.41 and 11.45 I think and then the 13. Best guess is the bottle was about empty as the 13 would be a realistic NA pass for the car I'd think.


Ahhhh forgot about the potential bottle issue. Yea, can't wait to read his chronicles of the event!

Just got back, was at Norwalk yesterday and Martin today. My buddy and I drove out each morning. Great meeting Clark and his dad for the first time, OutlawD with his really nice '66, Monte, and seeing Joel, Jeff, Jim and Scott again. I did not run into Ray, he would make a pass almost immediately each morning and then I wouldn't see him by the time I got to the pits. Have a couple really bad iphone photos attached, next time I'll have to use a real camera.

In the attached photos, Clark ran an 11.14 I think. Joel is getting slightly sideways in the burnout box, the Gebhart Valiant has the wheels up against the Chisholm and Stasiack gasser, and there is a pass from Jim yesterday at Norwalk.

I spent a couple hours with the Gebhart clan on monday what a nice family and me and Mr Gebhart helped the John Deere truck load up in the pits. I even was able to get that elusive Summit part number for a 62 valiant FG hood upthanks again Billy I had a blast but I think I got the DW bug. All the racers were great most didnt have a problems answering questions. I was very impressed with what these racer go thru I know what its like to prep for one day but to have to plan for 5 days of hell they've more then earned my respect.

I was back in the Gebhart pits when Billy ran the 9.66. He let out a yell when he got back with his timeslip in hand. Good run!! So cool to see his brothers drop everything to go over and congratulate him. He and his family are all super nice. I wish them the best of luck for the rest of the week.

Did the part for Monte's trailer include a 2x6 that was on the roof?! What gives? I have some pics that I'll post if I can figure out how.

I was there with an old friend, Les Smith and his Procharged '67 Nova - he ran 7.68, just .02 off his all-time best. Weather was great! Track was really good!

If you have never gone out to a Drag Week event - DO IT!! It is a very different spectator experience!!
