What a long weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had a blast this weekend but it was to much driving for me and to much work for my dad. We both went to work last thrus. and at 7 oclock that night we drove to huntsville and was sitting at the gate at 7:30 friday moring waiting to get in. Off the trailer we went a 5.15 on M/H's 30x 10.5 then put on a new set of hoosier tires that I had made with a real stiff sidewall but went into tire shake. They still need to have tubes in them and I didn't have a thrid set of tubes to use. the thrid pass we put on some used M/T 29.5x10.5 non W and run another 5.15. Got to bed about 12:30 that night and got up at 7:30 sat moring and set around most of the day the weather was bad got one pass that morning and the car did a wheel stand and had to pat the gas and ran a 5.33. We finally made a qual. pass at 8.30 that night and went a 5.07@142.7 then came back at about 11.30 on a wet track and went a 5.06@143.4 It shook the tire at about the 80ft and move the car to the center but I road the line on out. Then sunday first round I took some power out of it to be safe and ran a 5.13 the next pass ran a 5.12. the air was not as good as sat. night but I but the power back just like the .06 pass. Went out and red let ran a 5.09 to his 5.06 and he had a .044 light, so he left me enough room to win but had .013 red. All I needed was a normal light for me and I could have won. but not enough sleep played apart in this weekend for sure. Then we loaded up left the track at 7:30 and pulled in to my drive at 8:am today. so out of about 120hrs I had about 18-19 hrs sleep. Good to meet some of you and thanks for all the words.
