Default Beech Bend Drag Trip...Photos

On Saturday 11/8 three Forum buddies and I headed to Bowling Green to take advanatage of some great fall weather. I wasn't disapointed, perfect weather conditions and great track prep led to some fast times.....

I managed to run the best of an 12.17 @ 116.80 with my completely stock 08 a6 2.56 gear car. These cars are amazing...

I posted more run detail in a post in C6 tech section...


My son took the pics and even made a few passes in his Flying Ion...

Actually, I ran quicker, but he put a hole shot on me....The time slip I posted is the run that I ran against him....
