1st race of 2018

[pittsburghracer]

Man what a weekend at Keystone Raceway Park. Friday nights race was canceled because the track didn't open till 5pm and it was soon 28 degrees so we raced for 5000.00 yesterday and 3500.00 today. first race of the year I was pretty rusty and had a .014 red-light first round. Today I lost 3rd round but had a GREAT time. My lights today were .023, .022, .010, and .010 so that's not to bad for a 62 year old guy. 7 passes on the car running 6.00-6.07 so the cars there too. Can't wait for next Saturday. The track photographer sent me this picture from yesterday.

We are so lucky at Keystone in PA for the amount of mopars that show up weekly. I was sitting in my trailer and counted 7 mopars surrounding me.

Lol. Ya I could get away with smaller ones and I’m giving up some et but that’s the way I usually go on my bracket cars. Heck my Daytona that only ran 8.60@160mph had 16 inch steam rollers on it with a 4 link suspension

Ya there were some heavy hitters for sure. Mia Tesesco cut a .0000 light on her way to the final on Saturday before being taken out
