Well It wasn’t all bad, I was a little disappointed in the weather. Basically since the convention its been getting colder and colder, ive been back to pants instead of shorts.. and its been in the 40’s at night.

So why not go to the track? Well I picked the hottest day since the convention. Arrived at 6pm and 85 degrees, made 9 runs and left at 10pm and 79 degrees!



I will say that the king of the hill is coming my way next year! This car is very consistent. I mad two series of runs. I got to the track and made 3 runs one right after another, then took a 2 hrs break to let the car cool down which never happened.



6:21 6:35 6:53pm

1st and worst run. 14.2 @100.67 60’ 2.43 very first run of 3

Best run in first 3 runs [email protected] 60’ 2.16 second run 14 minutes after 1st run



Two hour break

9:11 9:23 9:34 9:43 9:50 9:56



First run after cool down [email protected] 2.23 60’ 9:11pm

Best run [email protected] 2.11 60” 9:50pm

I’ll scan the time slips later for further review.

Best time 13.8 worst time 14.2 all runs (14.2 13.9 13.9 14.0 13.9 14.0 13.9 13.8* 13.9)

Best reaction time was my second run .020 all runs( .523 .020* .192 (red light -.123) .130 .236 .491 .459 .218)

Best MPH 101.22mph All runs ( 100.67 100.57 100.33 100.70 100.35 100.40 101.07 101.22* 101.03

Best 60” 2.11 All runs ( 2.43 2.16 2.12 2.23 2.12 2.16 2.14 2.11* 2.17

You're not getting King of the Hill if I come with the Town Car, Kirk...where's Murdock?

3 of my 5 runs in the TC had 60ft times within .005 of each other...

I don't know, Kirk! Porter's a 3-year defending champ, gonna be pretty hard to beat, especially if we continue w/o having the drag day like the past 2 yrs. Sure hope we have it though, you are in need of a new hat now that you gave up the buffalo head hat.

Nah, it will be tough against an AWD ATX.

BUT......Kirk had it sewn up in '02 with his ATX rental car, then had a brain fart and lost to Semchena in his MTX Maxima. :rofl:
