Hemi challenge

[B3422w5]

First round today at 11:30
Supposed to be free on YouTube, not sure what the link is, be cool if somebody could post it.
Interesting, I noticed Bucky is running an automatic in the psycho Cuda he is driving. Went 1,16 60 foot with it, half a tenth quicker than anybody else in the field.
5 cars in the 40’s, 10 cars between 8.42 and 8.56
Wonder how little oil these guys will run in elims

1,4 and 5 qualifiers Westcott motors
2 and 3 Jason Line motors

Schedule says 1:30 for second round. Supposed to be right after a comp eliminator clash at 1:15. But they ran first round at 11 instead of 11:30, so should be soon.

They just called the class before the Hemi’s come back out

 

[B3422w5]

Just called them

I wish I knew someone who was there, I'd love to have a Hemi Challenge cap.

First pair in the box now.

They just went to lownes and pedregon talking! WTF!?!

*Edit - switched to YouTube, all good.

Charlie and Comella next round.
Anthony went 1.19 60 foot, Charlie was 1.22, so I wonder( seeing as how Charlie sets up Anthony’s car) if he will put more gear in it for Comella

To me, these are the cars that make drag racing fun to watch.

Great racing today.

Steve Comella 4-peats with low ET of the meet in the final.

Steve led all the way.

Getting his check from Buddy Martin.

Herb McCandless in the booth.

I didn't see Steve's Dad, Chuck. He was my oil customer for years, and a super nice guy. I think he's enjoying retirement!

Thanks, I'm glad you had a good time. I want to do the same thing you did. I have little interest in the pro classes anymore.
