10.75 pounds -- but the 60' is not where I'm losing it. I always felt like if I spin on the launch -- that I should lower the RPM of the launch.

They ran the Jet car at 9:30 -- and then canceled the 2nd qualifying. Next (and last) qualifying is at 9am.

Dallas and I won our first rounds -- so we get to spend the night here

My last time slip was:

DIAL: 9.50
R/T: .009
60': 1.354
330': 3.935
1/8 : 6.070 @ 113.77
1000': 7.915
1/4: 9.470 @ 145.00

The car I ran was a slower car and I saw he was -.014 red before my light started -- so I aired it out. That's all she's got until I can get it home and see what's wrong.

Thanks for the Update Dave. I know you hate running down the slow cars.

Looks like Clay and Doug are up against each other. Given your competitors, I would rather be running down Berens than going up against Clay or Doug or 00 Joe. Man there is some tough competition up there.

-Dave

Berens is not slouch. He runs his number and is as tough as Albert Lee and 00 Joe.

Round Two of Eliminations

I'm still in, and have to go against Albert Lee in the next round. The last time I raced him I had a 9.500 but a .0001 light. I'm due. The only person still in who is in the Points Chase with me is Doug Duell.

Dallas is out.

I offered Clay a case of beer to take out Doug lol -- but he wasn't thirsty.

Doug gets his second BYE in the next round and takes on the winner of Albert and I.

Kurt is out
Clay is out
the 59 Chevy hardtop is out
00 Joe is out

The el Camino is in
Doug is in
Albert Lee is in
I'm in
Marty (Thunderbolt) is in

I'm not sure of the rest.

This is the 5th race in a row I made the money rounds at NMCA. I just need to get a damn event win.
