Oh boy! I think I'm going to let the professor tell you all how good his day went. That vacuum pump sure did help! Damn that Nova was moving! He had some good reaction times too! Come on bbbenny! Where too next?

A perfect day for drag racing! Benny was running 10.3X ALL DAY LONG.

I took several pics and 1 vid (while taking pics at the same time). Once I get things uploaded, I'll update with more. GREAT JOB BENNY!

Little Youtube video I shot while trying to grab some action pics. Could have been better
<object width="425" height="350"> <param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/WVHktwxVMaM"></param> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param> <embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/WVHktwxVMaM" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"> </embed></object>

I wish I could have gotten a progression. Right out of the trailer, 10.39! Benny knew the day was off to a good start. Fastest the car had ever gone! Second run was a 10.34! I don't recall exactly what #3 was but in the same area.

Weather was perfect and it was a great day to see Benny and his crew. Nice day of racing and congratulations on turning your best times yet!

bbbenny's Race Car sounded and did the best with the fastest times so far. He had a fun time too with perfect weather with his &quot;Moroso Vacuum Pump&quot; doing the job. His Pit Crew was all over,congratulations bbbenny, and a fun time for all.

Saw him run the 10.34 against that little Opel GT. Second run I saw, the other car light the red light and Benny took it easy the rest of the way. Car was running good and the reaction times seemed to be right on.
