YeeeeeHaaawwwww! 10's baby...!

Finally!

Yesterday at the J&P shootout, on my last qualifying pass for the radial tire class, I ran a 10.946 @ 131.00 mph. My best et & mph yet!

I was trying a new method for coming out of the hole. I usually ride the clutch out, but the track was hooking like a gangster, so I dumped the clutch at somewhere over 4,000, spun of the line a little & just took off. I got a 1.710 60ft on that pass. A little earlier, using the same method, I got my best 60ft ever of 1.655.

It was late afternoon, the clouds had given way to sunshine, & the temp had dropped slightly & there was a tail wind. Everything just worked out beatifully!

Unfortunately, the event was rained out Sunday. It was still a great weekend, with the Pro 5.0 cars of Mangrum, Grebeck, Pande, Samuels & Wassink (a local Canadian guy, his first time out) in attendance.

What a blast!
