Re: New project

Got the truck out last weekend . Good news didnt have to buy back . Saturday i got to 11 cars ,which is 1 round from the money . I got greedy and pushed the reation time to the edge and was -.004 red . This allowed me to see what was happening with the front tire pressure for sure . Sunday i started out set up teens . Won first round dialed 6.75 and was dead on 4 or 6.754 and .010 . Second round i dialed 6.76 and drew the same guy on a motorcycle . I had a .033 light and got down there and scrubbed 8 mph went through 6.84 . His win light came on ! I get to the ticket both and parked the truck , got out and said something is wrong . "i creamed the tree and went through first on the brakes . No way he won " . The guy pulls up next to me and says "what the heck happened, my win light came on" They changed my dial to 6.96 . I walk over and shake the guys hand and wish him luck . The track manager is in the booth and the guy wants to rerun . Manager says we dont rerun here . oh well . I use bi focals and i leave with my computer glasses on , so i cant see a quarter mie away . Point is i took the tree and that was acceptance of the dial in . Moral of the story check your dial in . I was having a good outing for sure . the truck made every pass on dial in .
