Live from Zmax
 
We're here, made the 7 hour trip with out any problems. We're number 154 inline, they've been letting them park since 12:00. Should be a beautiful weekend hoping for good things like every race. Photos to come after we get in and set up.

Sorry guys no photos tonight, we got parked and thru tech if you only run the div race you park in the pro pits (pretty nice). The coach generator has been acting up for awhile I had to change the fuel filter all is good again. There's a ton of cars here and I'm sure they'll be rolling in thru the night It should be a strong car count. We're first out in the morning 9AM I believe I'll get some photo's tomorrow for sure.

Well it's a beautiful day in North Carolina the DA this morning was -289ft @ 7AM.My 1st run @9:30 the DA was still +89ft and I was fast 10.84. 2nd run was a little better 10.886 (I should of left the 2 numbers in the timer I took out). We're scheduled for 3 time runs today. I didn't get a car count for S/St but it looks like 25 or 30 cars.

So you want to different running a dragster? How about a fuel injected AMC, cool
http://i1305.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9zyzsuee.jpg
And if that's not different enough how about a twin turbo charged AMC. Now that's way cool. There both Alan O'Brien's T/D and S/C dragsters

I'm sorry for the lack of reporting, but I was a 1st round R/U again. We packed up and hauled butt back north. When I let go of the button I knew I was dead, I was pretty sure it stuck in momentarily and I was 067. To prove it we stopped at VMP to bracket race and sure enough in the 2nd round I let go of the button and the car never moved. After I let off the gas I touched the button again and the car moved. So this button potentially cost me 5k, yea I know stop crying. See ya at the NHRA Div1 race at VMP.

Thanks for the nice pixs fellas. Noticed a few of our ride.


The track was beautiful. What a nice facility. We were 6 or 7 from the staging lanes. I could sit at the back of the trailer and watch the car show go by.
