Weekend Race Videos..

Guys here are the videos of this weekends racing....Thanks Jim for the videos and thanks to Corky's wife Wendy for taking the videos of us guys....

There was a terrible cross wind on many of these runs, which cost us all some ET. By the weather from last weeks run, which I went 10.442-I think without the wind both Corky and I would have seen 10.3Xs.

Dad did go a 10.3 on his last run, but it wasn't caught on film.....Not too bad considering I took all the timing out of so he could launch, You can see how easy its leaving the line. That thing should be standing on the back bumper with full timing and a dead hook.

Hope you all enjoy the videos...

I really like those videos. It allows me to sort of experience the "thrill", until I can get my car ready!

Congrats on the runs. Is it just me, or does that track slope downhill?

Its a 40* downhill grade. Our cars really only run 13s on a flat strip.

No its a flat track. Probably one of the nicest here in PA.

Awesome!

Leaving in a 10.3 car must feel like you're being rear ended by a mack 18 wheeler. My 11.5 mustang(stick, 6000 rpm dump) sure felt fast. The vette was a little snoozy being an auto.

Very cool videos....I'm still amazed at how hard ya'll leave with the Vettes.
Ski....what did you run in the one video? Looked like an Altered.
Cork... My son wondered if you knew if the LeMans was running a Chevy or Pontiac motor?
