Off to Sikeston (MO) Drag Strip with the Grand Marquis and, thirteen rounds later, Mr. Dirt now has at least one event win for the seventeenth consecutive year. Unfortunately, I blew my chance at a "double" when my new Goodyear GTIIs spun just enough in my second final off the night.
I needed no buybacks and only got one bye in two divisions. RT average for the night was 0.021. I had two 0.003 TWs and one 0.007. Best bulb was an 0.015 (set up for an 0.018); that came against an 0.016 and was one of the 0.003 TWs.
That was win number 91, the runner-up made 123 finals and the car, originally a $3K hail-damaged special, has now made over $7300 in three years.
I'm off to a $2K FB race at Benton, IL, on Sunday.
The win was dedicated to the late, great Steve Taylor, the Greatest Drag Racer (to date) of All Time.
great job and good luck today !!
