Re: Union Grove race
 

Just got back and had the absolute time of my life. It was awesome. Weather was perfect, track was fine, competition was close, and nothing broke. Thanks John, Darren, Don, Mike, Jeff and Mrs. Jeff for making it a day to remember. I am hooked. Had a blast. Best run was .027 R/T, 60 foot at 2.000, 13.39 second 1/4 mile time at 101.55 MPH. At this time I had the rear seat out, air cleaner off, timing at 36 and tire pressure at 15. Again THANKS ALOT, it was a memory in the making. Check out the attachment I added as the edit.

Re: Union Grove race
 

Thanks Bob and Don the for pictures, sure was a great time. I am already looking forward to the next race date. After signing up and hearing the schedule for the day I thought it would end up being more of a bracket race then just grudge racing. There was bracket races but if you didnt want to bracket race they still had grudge racing all day you could actually get in as many runs as you wanted to. I surprised myself, I entered into the bracket race and some how ended up in third The only thing keeping out of the final round was a red light.
There were a lot of people from the sight Mike G with his GTO running mid 12s Pete with his Yenko last I heard he ran a best of 11:07 and of course Dru Im not sure but I think in the 11:50s but ended up breaking a axle Im sure someone has pictures of that.

Re: Union Grove race
 

Bruce it was a handful getting it off the line those hard dry rotted tires will be the first thing to go, but sure was fun.

Re: Union Grove race
 

Here's a link to one of my runs. mrtimstik's run

Re: Union Grove race
 

I just spoke with Pete, and, his best run was 10.98 @ 126!! That was before they asked him to park it for the day.

Re: Union Grove race
 

Wow.....Welcome to the 10`s Pete.

Dan.
