Default Re: The newest drag racer gears up!

We hit the MGR TnT Friday night, got 6 runs in!

First run off the trailer was a 13.55 with an .079 light, we decided to take the weight off - after which Ben relates that his foot slipped off the gas pedal on that run. Either way, removing the 25 #'s is a quick way to pick up 2.5 tenths (in theory). Second run he cuts an .063 light and runs a 12.93 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/eek.gif[/img] Awesome! We get right back in line for run #3, he cuts an .050 light and runs a 12.95. We take a break to go get our ETI squared away, and come back an hour or so later. The humidity was climbing quickly, so run #4 was a redlight and a 13.10, #5 was an .019 light with a 13.15 - another long wait for oil downs.... We got run #6 in around 9:45pm with 77% humidity turning on the red bulb and slowing down to a 13.40.

Overall, it was a good TnT session on a weekend where we couldn't get to a race. Ben was happy to be running 'fast' again, Dad was happy to know that this little 5HP Briggs still has 12.9x's in it. What a fun night!
