My Fest adventure.
It was nicer this year to have trophies instead of cash only for our Awards. They look great. First day started out with #2, 3&4 PB ET, despite the poor DA. I was pleased with my 2nd place finish in the brackets. Had to hold back on the tree(reaction time)-I'm use to the Pro Tree where 'Yellow means Go' . Was a close one -both of us full throttle the whole way ending up with just 0.060 difference at the finish and 0.04 off my dial in The second day of Headsup Modified class was a good time also. Day started out great with my first thee runs of the day spanning a total of only 0.003 seconds. As can happen in racing events with Ladder type structure of racers, I didn't get the opportunity to race my close ET matched opponent in the semi because he got the free pass (Bye).Was still pleased with my third place. Happy to see Neumatic take first place since he was the fastest of the Class, with being a manual tranny and cam above me, great job. Highlight of the event for me was to receive the Team Camaro award from Dr Jamie Meyer (Chevrolet Performance Manager) -presented by himself and acompanied by lead Camaro 5 mods. Sincerely appreciated. Hats off to all that got out there on the track for the first time*hope you enjoyed it as much as I do. Was great to meet and put faces, names, cars, and camaro 5 usernames, together. Hope to see many of you again next year.

I had a great time as well. On the morning of day one I started off with 3 new personal bests. I surprised myself by beating my previous best 60 foot times by over a tenth and my personal best E.T. by over a tenth as well. While I would have looked forward to winning my class (V8 modified) coming in second wasn't bad either for my second competitive drag racing event.

For a second I thought I blew the race in the Finals with RxDoc, I spun off the line and was a little slow at the lights and I seen his fender start walking me before I pedaled out of the spin and actually got going. It was a nice close race, split ended up being .120. I think they should have redone the ladder after 2 of the guys that qualified didn't come back. Would have been a lot better, no one would have had byes and it would have went a lot smoother. |
