Made it thru 1st round qualifying.
1.289 60ft 3.875 330ft 6.054 1/8 mile 112.61 mph 2 more rounds of qualifying and eliminations tomorrow. Today the outside temp was in the 90' and the DA was 3000 ft so no chance of a real fast pass.... still considering the heat, the car ran well and I'm just happy be able to come back and run for the $$$$ tomorrow.

Unfortunatly the heat was worse today than yesterday....
The car was very consistant - Running 6.06@112 in the 2nd and 3rd rounds of qualification. 1.28 60fts on both. That put me number 7 qualifyer on the ladder and with 10 cars in the field, I had to run the number 3 qualifyer first round... which worked out about like you would expect. First round eliminations the track got slick after the sun went down and I spun the tires hard... not that it would have mattered as he ran 5.56@124mph.. I slowed to 6.15@112mph with a terrible 1.41 60ft. I cut a horrible light as well... I really need some more seat time on the .400 Pro Tree. It sucks to loose first round but with all the breakage I have had just testing I am really happy the car ran good. We qualified well and at the end of the day I was able to drive it up on the trailer. I knew comming in that I would be one of the slower cars.... these other guys have years woring on their combinations and most of the cars FAR outclass mine in its current state. With a little more work on the car and the driver things can only get better. The rest of the competitors were really nice as was the promoter. Next race is in 2 weeks. Will try and represent the Corvette community a little better next race. Will |

I understand your disappointment, but you are still looking great out there: I ran the video more than once. |
