Saw Jo mention it (FB) and have been watching . Sure beats the lottery. Added to favorites

Todays coverage has started,the Mike Maggio camaro in pro street is one to watch for,they ran the 1st half of a new record yesterday

Pro street on right now,maggio just ran 5.94@245

Thanks Richie, a great way to spend a Sunday evening  :)

I agree ;D

I have been thinking about running the old cab in the 8.5 tyre class,its 1/8 mile only as they think its unsafe to the 1/4,As thats what size tyre it has on it,but seeing the winner run a series of 5.20s@140ish mph made me reailse its going to be hard to compete.


cheers Richie   

Yes, some of the cars in the "smaller" classes was crazy fast! I wonder what their next move will be? 60ft races? Seeing a couple of the turbo cars pulling their wheels up in 2nd gear was sure worth the wait. I also noticed that the wind did pick up a bit on Sunday.

The guy that won the 8.5 tyre class[black camaro] put his times up,looking at them any further than 60ft races and we would be done :D

Even then I might go a round once if I am lucky ;D
1.325
3.478
5.220
141.74

1.339
3.516
5.267
140.94

1.318
3.524
5.277
140.97


Vegas does seem to have a problem with the wind much to often affecting racing



cheers Richie

^^ those times read like those of Kris Lauffer's 1/8 runs... :o

Hi Walter,

yes except for the 60fts ;)

cheers Richie

Again thanks Richie, from how-to-make-my-clutch-work-crawling-on-the-floor to this excellent quality link.

-BB-

So does your clutch work now? if not get back out in the cold and fix it :D 

and next weekend should be just as good,if not better as its March meet@bakersfield so bangshift will be covering it again :)

cheers Richie

I hope he doesnt spill his drink,they will be pissed off if they have to do a track clean up for that ;D

cheers richie

I will continue with the clutch tomorrow.

Those speakers... oh man. I thought SCC had a good speaker but these guys beat them all. Great racing and really impressive quality on the link. Heck, they even replay all the wheelies.

4.322  - 185mph  :o

Amazing wasnt it,the guy that ran the 4.328 proberly couldnt believe it wasnt good enough for number 1 qualifier :o

OK, What's for next week  ?

March meet ;D  I will put the link up later in the week



cheers Richie

Sunday and eliminations  :)

Hey Richie, you need to come to the East Coast in July for Dragnight with the Lauffers, see how we do it on that side of the Country. We dont bite, but our Ladies do sometimes! :o

Hi gavin,
we have talked about it with them before,it sounds like a good event,but personally all the bullshit I got last year from certain people from out there who are in some way involved with the event,even if indirectly, will stop me going,I dont need to be supporting anything they do

cheers Richie

occasionally there is something going down thats interesting,track looks like its better now as well
