Ended up missing our first pass Sat... . Keating realized a problem at 2:30am on his way home from finishing getting the truck back together. So, the rear chunk got to come back out Sat am.
Made our first pass Sat against one of the "Beat the Heat" cop drag racers... . and thats just what Keating did. He left late and at low boost and managed to squeek out a 9:02 against the cop's 12:xx (even with the cop getting a 1 second tree advantage which we did not know about). :-laf
After some sleep, 3 passes on Sunday... . 8:91, 8:93 and another 9:03 (I think). The track would not hook. Probably something to do with them running lawn mowers and monster trucks... at least it didn't hook like when we were there last July. Even the Roy Hill dragsters were leaving light.
This tune had several new things... . most of which worked well. Time to change a few other things around to come up with the complete package and put a number up at Bowling Green.
DHRA guys put on a good show. The crowd really seemed to like what they saw. Good job to those that ran; Garmon, Stuckey and the Duramax team we parked next to (sorry I didn't get a chance to meet you).
