Sorry I didn't update since Saturday night -- but my Internet air card wouldn't work.
I ran my number against Mitzi for the FX Class -- but I red. I know this sounds like an excuse (and it is weak) -- but I was confused and thought I was running a Qualifying pass (I forgot Monster doesn't do those) and I pushed the light. I actually thought I'd won (even knowing I lit the stupid bulb) -- until the revelation came to me. Mitzi got a bye in the next round, and then the other guy went red in the final. It was exactly ten years since Bill had last raced and won class -- so she was very happy.
On Sunday in Eliminations -- I got a first round bye. In the Second round against the Psychotic Reaction car -- I had a .020 light and ran a 9.501. In the third round I had a good light and a pretty good run -- but Charlie (59 Chevy) had a great run with a .023 and 11.503. He, and every other run in the forth round had a red light. Four red lights!
We left the track at 8PM and drove all night arriving home at 11:30 this morning.
I took a ton of photos -- and will try to process them and post a link.
Doug Duell also sent me a few photos to post. |
