This is the gentleman that owned my black duster and beat me. She races a dragster too. I went to congratulate them and I got to meet their new puppy and get a kiss from him.
He was explaining it to me but I’m going to have to dig deeper into this discussion with him a the big money race in two weeks. Somehow they have to put a mechanical lockout on it because if you bump the shifter even in the pits driving it will lock up the rear wheels. I don’t think he’s running...
Ok it’s a friend’s girlfriend so I went and asked him. It’s a 464 or something like that and she like the guy I raced last week leaves in 2nd gear in their powerglide. Beautiful red 69 Z28 that will run high 5.80’s running it as a 2 speed. She’s kinda afraid of wheelies. Lol
Finally a day at my local track with no rain in sight. Ran a 6.03@111mph first time trial. A 6.04@111mph the second time trial. Dialed a 6.04 first round and I’m moving on. If this car had a better driver it would be in the winners circle once in awhile.
I need a calibrated bench as I want to feel confident in my numbers I’m giving customers. Kinda one of the reasons I’ve had three different benches. My bench doesn’t matter if it 90 degrees or -10 degrees.
