They were actually amazed at the amount of cars that completed the first leg....

The LS ate a camshaft.

It's generally a 20-25% failure rate throughout the week. Only 10 cars dropped out after Day one. Still a lot of the week to go.

Brad ran another 9.3x today, 9.32 I think.

As long as they can keep doing what they are doing I think they have a lock on the class win.

I know they sure like to eat cam bearings too.

Found a good show of the Bowers entry on facebook

First days mileage was 160 with lots of stop and go traffic. Todays was 220 I think.Hope they can reach at least 900 miles for the week.Wife and I flew in to watch the action at Cecil yesterday.Caught up with most everyone we knew except red light Ross. He was in a second gen Corvette and not his RoadRunner.Hope its not a trend.I will say the number of spectators at Cecil County rivaled the number that Great Lakes Dragway is known for.

2014 was definitely the first year for the pro tree at Drag Week.

After seeing that 1917 Franklin make it to day three and make a pass has me thinking Joel needs to get the rebuild on that Duesy done.

I don't think I want to risk getting paired up with a 6 second Esconda, or some other out of control berserko!

And besides that, I love racing the coupe, and want to be competitive. In 1929, the Duesenberg was a rocket ship. In 2019, not so much.

Lets just say it was interesting checking out day 2.I think a few people were humbled.

I was one of the ones that dropped out at the last minute. Was extremely disappointed but I live in the very south east corner of Virginia Beach just above the North Carolina line. The last 2 years we have been affected by hurricanes during the time frame of Drag Week. This year it was right before the storm but had to completely stop working on the car and shift to storm prep and then storm clean up.

I'm sure I'm not the only that was affected, but for anyone living along the South East coastline September is not ideal.

I was surprised that everyone who entered,wait list and just showed up got in this year.

Thank you John!!!! :-)

Lets keep our fingers crossed Billy's nephew Billy (Dale's son) is in first place in his class and has a decent lead with only one other car running in their class. Super street big block power adder. 9.883 avg to 11.378 Go Rusty Duster

I have a buddy that registered and headed that way only to have the trans in his car fail on the drive out.

Bailey just went 5.998 wow!!!
