All the way into the trailer! This race took place about 20 hours ago and The Car cover guy won.

Not many S/SS players can drive that well.

Re: 1st rd SS........Fletcher v. DeFrank
 
Fletch must have been powering to the line. Notice how close his wheelie bar wheels are to the track surface & distance the fender is over the front tire. Seems logical he would do that when a faster car is running him down at the line @ 150+ MPH. That is just good racing!

Re: 1st rd SS........Fletcher v. DeFrank
 
The results MAY have been different if he hadn't replaced a fuel system component before first round that resulted in a .060 ET pick up.

Just say'in !

I could've taken a lot more stripe than that! :p

Well I guess he lost the battle,but won the war.Keep it up Dan.

Bob Smith 07-29-2013 07:48 PM

Re: 1st rd SS........Fletcher v. DeFrank
 
Good racers and a good race. When these 2 collide, could go either way. Hard to ever bet against Dan, especially as he approaches the 100 National Event win mark. Bernie 'may' and 'if' are small words with very large meaning. These 2 racers will do their talking on the track it seems

SStockDart 07-29-2013 09:00 PM

Re: 1st rd SS........Fletcher v. DeFrank
 
I would say that it is a stupid bet to bet against either one of them. Both are "great" and know how to win.

partsbob67 07-29-2013 09:04 PM

Re: 1st rd SS........Fletcher v. DeFrank
 
saw the race, at the stripe didn't look like either one lifted. damn good race!

what you saw didn't register correctly with ya.! your half right LOL
Burger killed .04 something doing a great job but not expecting the pick up

Dan Fletcher 07-30-2013 11:41 AM

Re: 1st rd SS........Fletcher v. DeFrank
 
I probably made a bad decision, but I had a regulator acting suspect and changed it out prior to 1st round. Yes, the car picked up substantially. Its hard to race a 150mph car when you're going a solid 8 under.

Bottom line, if you get beat in the tree, last time I checked, getting there first in a double break out doesn't work out too well, lol. Congrats to Jimmy. Staci would have just whipped my *** anyways...

Saying you would bet $100K against Dan is like saying you are a terrible gambler, or just not very smart. You should do that with real money and see where it gets you.

That was said in jest after Jimmy had already won.
