Sunday Mopar Madness Winner winner chicken dinner at Dragway 42
What a weekend it was at Dragway 42. Looked like Friday and Saturday we’re going to be total washouts and only good day was Sunday. Well Friday all day was beautiful and it started sprinkling Friday night after first round of the gamblers race. That stayed around for a while til finally they made the decision to finish the gamblers on Saturday cause weather was looking better and better for Saturday. Well Saturday came and we had some serious storms which we were not expecting. We expected rain, but not this much rain. This was enough rain to cancel any race and mostly everywhere I go to. But not Dragway 42. They did not cancel the race. They dried the track and we raced. Got the entire main event in. They even considered finishing fridays gamblers race late, but ultimately did not do that. Sunday was beautiful as expected and they got the entire day in.
Sunday my business partner and close friend Danny ended the weekend with winning super pro in his Roadrunner. Car was great all weekend and Danny can pound the tree to death especially when he gets in a rhythm. After a lifter failure last season on a brand new build, it’s been a struggle. Finally he was able to park that car in the winner circle after making constant changes to the car last year and this year to try and fine tune it and get it where we want it. Hell of a way to end the weekend. Can’t wait for the next Mopar race at Norwalk in September.
