The 2009 Season thus far...
Unfortunately because of lack of time & readiness our family has only made it to one race. Overall things went really. I caught great lights on the tree .003 & .005 etc... I cannot complain for being rusty from the long winter. The car did great for not having a lot of touch up or revamping before the race. She ran hard, but great. We caught our best 60 ft - 1.506 but followed by a 10.789 best for the day. Somewhat of a Cinderella Story for the day. I lost 2nd round because of the drastic change in weather between rounds (a drawn-out rainstorm) . Despite entirely letting off during the checkered through the final 50 ft, I still broke out by running a 10.789 on my 10.79 dial in. A tough loss but with a nice day and nothing broken, we can't complain.
The other 1/2 of our racing crew, the Bosley's, have gotten two races in so far this year. Last weekend was a tough loss for them as well. Justin, the driver of a 1969 Pontiac Firebird, lost 2nd round as well. He ran right on his dial in, 9.53, but cut one bad light, .064 , and lost it. Overall he had a good weekend as well. Some minor tinkering on the car and he ended up passing the quarter the fastest this year and also managed not to break anything. Definitely a great way to end both of our weekends with nothing to go home & fix. :)
