Well it's looking like its gonna be another georgeous day at CB Dragway, and with the pits pretty much overflowing with vehicles, its surely gonna be a great weekend of racing....
Between me and Mario we hope to keep some of you up to date on a little of what's going on here the weekend...
With a day and a half of test & tuning already behind us, we have seen plenty of quick passes and best ever and unfortunately some breakage also.... Mark Green pulled in yesterday morning with a fresh motor already for bear only to have an axle break on first launch... After some best ever passes, spencer phillips hurt the little vega and is done for the weekend.... Lonnie and Joey were putting plenty of passes on the 2 mustangs yesterday, noticed they had pulled out last night, not sure on the damage... Gary P's bad luck continues as another motor expires at the finish line.....
Now some good notes, great crowd of vehicles, looking to be one of the better weekends in CB in a few years... ( Thank you to everyone for the support, it goes along way in keeping drag racing in CB)... After some horrific tire shake on thursday night, dougie wrathal pieced his dragster back together to make some 7.5? Passes.... Great contingent of newfoundland power with 6 quick rides to play in the quick 8... Laying some times down already as Dave Anthony went a 6.89 at 196mph and Powell Jr went a 7.24 at 195mph in the cougar.... Lots of personal bests, few that I seen were Lenny Nicholson screaming the little vette to a 7.97 pass... Robert Hogan down to 10.27, Sheldon Pastuck had the newly painted mustang down in the 10.5?'S and the leudy boys looked to have micheal's car figured out as seen multiple nice straight passes, not sure on #'s.... Noel Peach starting to get the big power down the track, 9.4?'S with A LOT more left.... Even tigger had its best ever at 16.62...lol
Well heading out to the track as we speak so more later, forgot to mention, pro tree series has another good turnout for only second race with over 20 entries in the mix....
Back later....
