1st Place, True Street Class

Not a bad day for my first time on the 1/4 with the maggie...true street class 12 second winner, 3 hot lap average 12.06. Got a plaque and a $100 check! Tomorrow should be some really close racing in the Gen 5 class. Best for the day 11.97.

Been a blast so far this weekend and great meeting everyone. My car was .4 slower than usual Friday. Found out it was fuel, and got it all fixed up.

Good luck to everyone tomorrow and be safe!

Here is round #1 qualifying. They didn't have the other sheets up yet today that I saw before we left.

We had 10 cars in round #3 of qualifying, so should be a GREAT turnout for the race tomorrow.

autocross is run as many times as you want; all day. Your best time for the day will compete against the rest.

Given that I broke the axle today on first 1/4 launch.....I didn't try any other drags with 'borrowed' axle from my Missouri brothers..but did manage a couple late runs on the autocross.

congrats to the runs that got through with no broken gear!!!

I'll hit the autoX first thing and then do some 'gentle' runs with the 5th Gen class....just for giggles!!

I think I still have my stock axles....If I do you can have them. They would be at Vengeance in Cumming, Ga.
