Lebanon Valley Update
 

Got this from Yellow Bullet. LVD is getting new concrete starting line pad but not without controversy as one of the cement trucks overturned while pouring the concrete.

"Unsafe speed may have been a contributing factor, in the crash"..
Could there be a new Eliminator in the works?
What should it be called?

Re: Lebanon Valley Update
 

Heavy Eliminator? ;) Chutes required

Of course, if he was in the right lane it was excessive wheel speed from the utter lack of traction which confused him as he was in a 40 ton vehicle, and he matted it, thus sealing his fate........

If he was in the left lane, it was a excessive wheelstand condition, which since he was in a 40 ton vehicle confused him and he matted it thus sealing his fate.......

I speak from personal experience.....the lil dakota that could has done it all there, but even the HP challenged Gremlin with bias plias spun last year in the right..........

Re: Lebanon Valley Update
 

Thank you Lebanon Valley for working on the track, and giving us a place to race.

Re: Lebanon Valley Update
 

Looks like the track was a little too wet to be racing:)

"This post is to talk about the improvements that we are doing at Lebanon Valley Dragway with the starting line. As we work towards completing our new starting line , it was an unfortunate accident yesterday that happened with one of the mixer trucks , the driver is home and in good condition as of today.
Please refrain from any negative comments moving along with the repairs to the track and what you feel is necessary to be done at Lebanon Valley Dragway."

Remember you have a place to race and that is what it is about.
