Not too bad. Bill ran a .015,RT,1.9xx 60ft,7.9xx 1/8 mile,12.3x 1/4. I had bye run until another rider showed, .015 best SET R/T for qualifying. Sam ran .106 R/T 2.3x 60 ft. 8.3x 1/8,93.76 mph 1/8.12.56 @114.49.Sam got me back in first rd, .008 R/T 12.25 dial in.2198 60ft,8.084,1/8,95.02 in 1/8!!!!!! New Samauto and Sam's PB in 1/8th! K. 12.727 1/4, won and chopped throttle! So not to be out done, I showed 'em!
.028 R/T,.........bike launched went a foot or two, fell flat on its face...and stalled!
Well I cranked it back, knew I was still live...so rode on down the track, sightseeing, taking it easy,ran a 27.594 60ft!, finally it cleared out so I ran it out the back door for a new PB of..........42.713 for the WIN!
...he redlighted !
Wow! K. Sam dialed a 12.25,R/T .103,2.29 60ft,8.23 1/8,94.51 mph 1/8,12.898 1/4 86.61 mph,other lane broke out and redlighted.So next rd, I ran 1.955 60ft,7.92, 1/8,12.329 109.89 mph against a 12.40 dial in, oh well, yes before I broke out, I redlighted, knew I'd break out, but knew I'd redlighted. Now the good news!
Sam's next run, 12.25 dial in,.085 R/T,2.011,1/8 7.836, new PB and Samauto best. Engine breaking in nicely.
94.99 1/8 mph,.....12.06 and he chopped the throttle, would have been Samauto's first 11 second run! K.Mph was 112.07. Damn! Sam had him beat by .2411! Other lane also broke out, but by only.004! Overall probably our best Team day with Dragracer also laid down a 8.21 on a 8.20 index. Dave Fletcher and Jim F also won first rd Pro ET with 8.91 on a 8.90 index ,.006 light! Number 4 qualifier! Tired, burnt, hungry, but heading off to Hooters and we get to do it all again! We have good footage,yes Larry Larz from Mars hooked up my Go Pro, yeah baby. Thank you Larry. KMB 69 and wife and friend came, Wilbur's here, Mark52,met new owner of PMR, do you think just maybe I bought a new PM caliper, more braking surface than both Gremica's! Racer deal! Oh yes also 18mm left BRAKE master cylinder! Go Samauto!
. More later,some really good stories! The elusive 11 may happen tomorrow. Going to do all z little tricks......I can FIND .007! Bill
