friday night
Well i am finnally getting caught up from this hurricane that tried to tear my place up . My wife and daughter were out of town , so i loaded up . The track got power back on the 3rd and was open . I tighted the converter by draining the ATF and refilling it with 303 tractor fluid and rotated the drag radials . I also lowered the front end to the bump stops to give it more travel . I had it preloaded pretty good before and it dead hooked . Anyway It blew the tries of at the hit and broke the nitrous line from the bottle dumping the whole thing . 1 crappy pass =$100 . Anyway a couple of pics .

Re: friday night
Is that a look of shock or OH $H!T?? My sister was fighting the power fight as well, she was crashing with some friends, not sure if she has power yet?! BTW A crappy night at the track beats watching TV wich is what I do nearly every night!! Closest strip is 6 hours away, so no racing for me.
