Default Congrats to Waynet, runnerup @ Presidents Cup Nationals

Wayne was runner up to Dan Fletcher at The IHRA Presidents Cup Nationals in Stock Eliminator yesterday !

He wasn't driving a Corvette but was behind the wheel of his late model LSI Firebird in the B/FIA class running 10.30-.40s all weekend with 90+ heat. In the final the trans failed to shift on the 1-2 or the race would have been tighter. The dials were 10.40 to a 10.44 and their reaction times were within .014 of each other.

Great race Wayne,
Dave

We did get rain and will finish the race at Maple Grove....Maybe, Rich has not made the call there yet.

Unfortunately you will not be able to get in as we finished qualify and round 1 of AMI and have one car left in drag radial.

There were several unhappy racers and if you have some time to kill, check out the post on over on that site.
