The Drags
Just got home from the drags and had a blast. 1st time this year going up so wasn't sure what to expect from the car. It ran a 12.9 at 106 last pass and broke out of the bracket that I dialed in at and tripped the red. But not bad for an old truck engine running on street tires through the mufflers. The club must of had about 100 cars their some very nice American muscle.
I met Rescue Rogers up there and we both had a fun time. The Bracket round win went to Scott who kicked my ***....My daughter was sorry she missed it but wants to drive next time out....Figure its only fair seeing she assembled the engine for the old girl.

And I didnt kick Johnny 'breakin the laws' ***. The first dial in run I beat him cause he was testing his tranny, then the next 2 I was getting excited and spinning at the lights. THe last run I was closer to the dial in but broke out too. I dialed in 14.oo cause I havent been faster than that and I broke into the 13s with a 13.956. So buy the dial in I was closer cause he only dialed in a 13.2 but still. He kicked my ***, but it was the funnest *** kicking I've had!!

I have a video but it says its too big too upload and I do not know how to make the file smaller
12.927@107.6 on a 13.20 dial in not bad for a 3500 lbs car running a small block
