Competition NHRDA/ Big Rig weekend

[Rhondasway]

What a great weekend of racing! Lots of rounds Friday night, Saturday, and perfect weather Sunday too. I'll pat myself on the back for winning the Pro1 class , with my truck running consistently in the 11. 8's. Hoss was runner-up to me. Mr. Fletcher had another 'water incident' which seemed to affect his brain, making him red-light in the first round (giving some of us hope that he's not invincible).

Paul went a number of rounds to win the Pro2 class, with Slybones hot on his heels in the runner-up position.

The big rigs were putting on a great show too, with some extremely fast, huge rides! There were some Fords there, several of which I spanked hard Friday night... :-laf

I challenged the Lucas Oil big rig to a grudge match to which they reluctantly agreed (with pressure from the other big rig drivers, track staff, and media); they made me give them a second and a half (they'd run 11. 9's Saturday but said they were out of Nitrous), and did not take me up on the 'pink slips' offer... :right: Then after running a new World record 11. 75 (musta found some Nitrous), they "blew a head gasket" and the race never happened... They said if I show up to the Sacramento race in September they'll run me; might be worth the drive...

There was another trick 2wd there, from Dawson Creek? Built to the hilt but having problems and unable to run. Nice truck, could be fast some day...

Thanks to DTT for providing the crucial link getting my power to the ground, taking round after round of horrible abuse and never failing when I need her most.

Thanks to Piers and PDR for all the good stuff the Princess is utilizing to be so bad-***!

And thanks to Fletcher again, for his engine building techniques and tuning advice that has put my truck on top and running great! Fletch, can we start turning her up now?

Congratulations Rhonda

Next time I hope I actually get to race you rather than sitting at the start line watching you run down the track

Way to go Rhonda, first place pro-1 win w/ the NHRDA (The original diesel motor sport organization) I knocked myself out w/ one of those red lights, Hoss intimidated my truck so much that it ****** on himself… I'm really impressed w/ the pwr Ms. Princess is displaying. I must say, the building numbers paid off…As a real true everyday commuter truck/ long haul trip taker, the reliability is incredible. We hope to see ya at the PIR race

at the end of the month. It will probably be the last time Ernie's ran due to a probation violation that I have to make good on w/ the state…send cigarettes…Na, it's only for 45 days then back to that Ankle bracelet for 6 mo.
