ZR-1s smoked 'em again!

[Pete]

Our boys did a great job and brought the trophy back to the ZR-1 group.
But it wasn't without injury,on my 3rd pass took out my second gear.
Best I mustered was 11.30 it was good enough to bring it home.

We'll make them better,stronger we have the technology for next year.

well it was fun to run the car after 8 years not being on a drag strip with it. I did not run any times that helped win this deal, but I did take one of the other club's car out in the first round, and than in the next round I got put next to Kevin! He was our guy to win this thing and I had to run him, what am I going to do......I know, red light, run slow, miss a gear, something to take me out so Kevin can keep going!

And what happened......as soon as I got up to the line it all went out the window for what I was gong to do, I just ran as hard as I could, Kevin went flying past me right at the end, and that is when it hit me, what did I do, if I beat him I am going to feel like crap!

as I turned on the return road and got to the booth for the time slip Kevin was already gone with his slip and I could not see what he got. As I got up their to get it all I wanted to see was a yellow paper not white, they hand me a yellow slip and I was happy, Kevin beat me, I am saved!

I look at the slip, and I broke out, all the better! it was my best run of the day. I was set up to run 12.300 and the slip was 12.2449.

the days runs in order:
12.5891 120.66
12.3589 121.62
12.3091 119.74
12.3479 121.65
12.3441 119.65
12.3609 119.39
12.3441 119.65
12.2449 119.74 and I lost.......yes

Not too shabby for an old dude Having the trailer there was great too.
We'll need to do this again. Don't forget the 1/2 mile event next year again.
