it was a typical soup like race day in the swamp. Got rained on hard 2 times. I am pretty happy with the newly rebuilt 604ci although I had hopes of being .1 faster I will say the motor has good manners, starts and runs great with no hiccups. Prints tickets like a zerox machine!! [click on attachment and zoom in to see] I got lucky first round and not so lucky in second. Raced a friend of mine and we went heads up since we were so close. MPH is off in the right lane, more like 149.
I will run the IHRA ProAm next weekend then may put the alky carb back on??
Good to hear it ran well, sucked to see the race got rained out though.....might head over to PBIR next weekend to spectate and help out my son-in-law, will be his 1st race in Super Street

I did terrible, I didn`t think we would be racing Saturday as the Friday forecast called for rain. They opened and we had a few little showers and it was cold, windy, humid and damp. First two time shots I was set up a little slow 11.61 and 11.63 so I set the stop for a little more throttle and went 11.48 too quick for 11.50 I left it and figured I would just lift and pedal. My opponent dialed a 12.60 I dialed 11.51, he was 091 I was 082, I caught him and scrubbed 3-4 mph and went 11.509 OUCH! he was 2 over. The good news is after breaking my " new" trans last week my old trans back in the car was fine, the bad news is I lost first round and only got 100 points.
