Today being the first day of spring, I can't help but wonder how how much of the country is racing already.
This time of year in the Northwest is about as frustrating as it gets. Rain, Rain, and more Rain!!
I got my new ET Drag Radials mounted up the other day, and can't wait to get to the track and see how my off-season changes pay off, but around here, we're probably still 6 or 8 weeks away (sucks!)
You guys??????

Heck, I'm half way through the season! Race #6 is tomorrow ( out of 12 ). The only month I don't race is July - too hot.

In a few weeks I'll pull my back up engine out of the car and put the W-9 back in... other than that I have to wait.... it'll be a bit before the tracks open

Drove the car to work today. Might head down to Woodburn soon if the weather cooperates to blow the cobwebs out the car, but mainly me. Otherwise i'll be hanging on until April 16th, 17th for Pacific's opener.

Wish I could. It simply wont quit raining here. Thinking maybe of taking up sailing, or Arc building. Made it out ONE time so far this year with any success. I am racing in Vegas next week with no real data to go off of and a new combination with a total of 4 passes on it. Only three of which were on the stop. So call me a first round duck but gotta go.

Going to Raceway Park tomorrow, had car all loaded up to go last week but had a cold and didn`t feel well. Points don`t start at my home track ( Island Dragway) until the first week in April.

Saw on Kanawha Valley's web-site (Winfield, W. Va.) they are going to have a Test/Tune and swap meet March 26. Sounds good, but a little too early for me...car is still in the trailer,,maybe in a couple weeks I'll be ready.
If you like drag racing, support your local track.
