Default Re: Northeast FAST DRAGS & Factory Stock drag race

I've been called a lot worse than Merlin! It was nice to meet you at the track, and several other folks as well.

At 11:00 there were 3 FAST cars and me! By noon however, 2 more F/S cars arrived. A '69 AMX with 343 and 4speed, and a '71 GTO with an a/t. I raced them both over the course of the afternoon, and had a lot of fun.

It was an all around good day! The weather got better, the reschedule date was finalized before we left, met some really nice F.A.S.T. guys, and actually improved my times over the course of the afternoon - no particulars though

The best part of the day however, was the hospitality of Andrew Hinckley. No better way to enjoy a race than to have the track announcer give you personal tours of the place, explain how everything works, introduce you to so many people that I can't remember, sending out workers to make sure my car was alright after my initial pass, etc... A big, big thanks to Andrew!
