Sacramento Open?

FastbackTom · 05-09-2012, 05:08 PM

The Sacramento Open was my first dip of the toe in the water of NHRA Super Stock. You guys are tough! No easy rounds in this game, and this wasn't even a divisional!

I was fortunate to be able to go a couple rounds starting with an .016 R/T in round 1, before Rich capitalized on my .049 R/T in the quarter finals, which sent me packing, he onto a competition bye in the semi's, and latter earned the win in the finals. No complaints, as I've been away from the driver's seat for 7 years. Once again, I have some work to do as a driver.

LED's ?... so this means I need to replace my old incandescent bulb practice tree? --- Tom Simon SS/VX 7244

Thanks guys! What a fun weekend. My son won his 1st wally earlier in the day so the pressure was on for me to get it done. Thanks again, see you all in Fallon.

LOL. We're not that old! He's only 9yrs old. Along with the National open there was a Jr Drag Divisional. So I should have said a JR Wally!
