Mark, did you get my order for shirts "I hope" a while back. Oh! and I got my first runs on the new "to me" Altered last night. First was a half pass, 1/8 mile, 6.59 then three moderate passes, 6.38, 6.05, and a 5.84. these were shifting at 6000. Then two full pulls, 5.68 at 118.70 mph shifting at 6700, then last pass was a 5.66 at 119.41 shifting at 6100. and with a 1.21 60 ft. I'm a Happy Camper.
Let me tune it, I'll have you at a safe speed in no time.

Yes Barry, I have packed an order of shirts for you. Great runs!!!! I worked all winter on my "Golden Girl" so I could run with you "Big Dogs", but I think I missed the mark. It will be great being with all you guys at BG. I just came in from packing the trailer, and today I fixed an oil leak in the engine and I think everything is ready to go -go! Regards, Mark

It's tunnel vision if you have never done it, but the human brain is pretty dang smart and it wont be long you can pick out your friend in the stands. :D
WOW!!! :beer

I'm sure you know this but,,, 5.66 in the eighth mile should put you in the high eights in the quarter mile. :clap

Denny someone should take you to are designated pit area.
The last three years that I went with Tom, we had tickets to get through the gate and had to go credentials up by the tower.
Tom says he wont make it this year but will be back next year with a new spring in his step. :D
