She put the 4th round on Youtube here it is. You can see my frontend drop at the end. I was ahead of him but gave it back by .0127. It didn't matter anyway I would have broken out ifI took the stripe.

I was so tired Monday morning I got my rounds confused. Jimmy Denham lit the red light 3rd round on me. He was -.003 on the tree to my .013 we both ran it out the backdoor. He was 10.882 @ 131. I was 10.884 @ 154. My Daughter got excited and messed up the video a little but I like it. It's another Facebook deal watch it if you can.

Good to see you’re getting some racing in.

**regan wilson** · 04-16-2021, 05:26 AM

Thanks Monty. It's looking like St Louis is a go for next week. I'll make my final decision by Sunday. It's a long haul but a great track. And hey they were nice to me there. That's where I got the best appearing award in 2019.

**regan wilson** · 04-17-2021, 09:49 PM

We scaled the truck today. The way I set it in Houston ended up being almost neutral. It was 3lbs heavy on the drivers side. I usually set it 10 to 20 preloaded on the passenger side. I decided to leave it alone and play with shock adjustments instead. Hey it was predictable after the adjustment so I'm going with it.

**regan wilson** · 04-17-2021, 09:53 PM

Also I may or may not be in St Louis Thursday. I may be at South Georgia Motorsports Park in Adel Georgia. I have roll the dice due to weather conditions. I guess we'll see.

SCOTI · 04-17-2021, 10:00 PM

Dang.... Long drive w/a roll of the dice tilting the direction of travel.

It's about 100 miles more to Ga. Not that big of a deal on that. I think I'll make my decision by Tuesday. I wish I was a Weatherman! They get paid whether they are right or wrong. Lol

What’s the truck weigh Reagan?

The scales at Houston read 3575lbs. These chassis scales read 3556lbs. The old chassis scales I used read 3590. The scales in St louis last year read 3550. So I don't know Monty lol. We put less than ten feet of Moly tubing with the braces so it didn't gain but 10-15lbs.

I'll still never get thrown out of Super Street over the 2800lb minimum.

**regan wilson** · 04-20-2021, 08:41 PM

I knew I didn't want to go to St Louis with the weather predictions. They postponed the race and made it a double race at the end of September. I thought that was great until I figured out I can't go because I have to be in Noble Ok for our Division 4 race.

**regan wilson** · 04-20-2021, 08:46 PM

Anyhow I'm loaded up and ready to go to Georgia Thursday. I rigged up something to help save my shocks today. Since I don't run my wheelie bars I made this up to keep movement to a minimum.

South Georgia Motorsports Park Adel, Ga this weekend.

**regan wilson** · 04-24-2021, 10:52 AM

Well guys I'm 800 miles from home in Adel Georgia with my Daughter on her 36th Birthday today

**regan wilson** · 04-24-2021, 10:54 AM

**regan wilson** · 04-24-2021, 10:54 AM

SCOTI · 04-24-2021, 11:18 AM

Well.... She doesn't look older than 26 so Happy B-Day to her. That track is about 1.5hrs north of my dads place.

Good luck w/the rounds!

**regan wilson** · 04-24-2021, 12:24 PM

She said thanks Scoti. We're just sitting here watching it rain right now. We made it through first round this morning.

I talk to my dad every Sun night @ 9pm(Tx)/10pm(Ga) time. He'll usually ask what the weather was like here the last few days so he has an idea of what's coming LoL.
We got poured on last night/over-night here in the Dallas area. Not a cloud in the sky @ 9am....

71Dragtruck · 04-24-2021, 01:06 PM

Nice looking track, happy birthday to your daughter and good luck.

**regan wilson** · 04-24-2021, 01:25 PM

She said thank you. I'll do the best I can. Thanks Monty

**mongocanfly** · 04-25-2021, 01:37 PM

Regan, truck looks great sitting in line...
I was wondering if yall were gonna get wet down there... lot of storms blew thru yesterday...

**regan wilson** · 04-25-2021, 05:34 PM

Thanks Greg. It got ugly last night at 10pm Eastern Time. I had a Tornado Alert go off on my phone. Jamie and i got dressed and rode up to the brick bathrooms (done that before). We were up there with a few people and waited it out for awhile. One guy said (did you hear an Airplane?). I told him you probably heard a Tornado. I had some tough competition second round this morning. I had him on the tree and we were both a little hot. We were back and forth at he stripe and I thought I took it. I ended up giving it back by .002. Damn
